I met a guy at Lexus dealership about 20 years ago for a "business meeting" and he was paying like $100 for an oil change, and back then it would have cost only $40 in Jiffy Lube or $60 at Toyota dealership.
My local Lexus dealer provide pick up and drop off if I do warranty work there, 1 client at a time, vs my local Toyota dealer provide only drop off in a group of 5, and no pick up at all (have to uber back). The Lexus driver was more mature and polite, whereas the Toyota driver was just cracking offensive in today's standard joke to the customers.
Obviously you are paying more for Lexus vs Toyota despite mechanically they are identical in the maintenance. I would imagine it is the same on all brands and their luxury subbrands.
