Lisa Loeb: The famous “Stay (I Missed You)” singer prefers her Lexus GS 350.

While looking for something new, Mrs. Loeb test-drove cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, and the like, her Lexus provides her the simplicity of having a reliable, comfortable everyday car saying, “I ended up getting a Lexus because, for the amount that I drive, it’s quiet and so easy to drive.” Even though she loves the look and feel of old cars, “I’m just all about a Lexus…I always thought of myself more as a Porsche person, but the more I drove them, I was more comfortable in the Lexus driving around for hours,” she said.

I got hooked on it around 2007 when I got my first one, and I just loved it right off the bat and leased it for three years and got a new one in 2010 and now a new one this year,” he says. “I keep going back because I think it’s a great car.”
