What is the plural of Lexus?

 

 

What is the plural of Lexus?  Should we call more than one Lexus two “Lexuses?”  Or are they “Lexi?  Or “Lexera”?  Do you sidestep the issue by saying “Lexus cars” or “Lexus models?”  

Many different car sites across the web have debated this subject.  Even the Car Talk guys give their two cents and a bit of good natured roasting on this subject too.  Their conclusion is:

Tom: Also, sticking with Latin, we see two possible declensions. There's the "opus" model, of which the plural is "opera." So if we follow that rule, the plural of Lexus would be Lexera. One Lexus, two Lexera.

Ray: More likely, Lexus follows the same rule as Taurus, which pluralizes as Tauri. So we'd have one Lexus, and two Lexi. Personally, I think that sounds classier.

The Lexus Website seems to prefer using “Lexus” as both the singular and plural form.
