The Lexus looks and sounds better but falls behind when it comes to tech and comfort. The only car in this segment that's better than the 8 series IMHO is the new Panamera based BCGT - but the 8 series is almost as good for a whole lot less $$$.

Merc is coming up with a direct competitor to this car with the R232 SL. It'll be lighter with an AMG GT platform and have 4 seats to give the 8 a run for its money.
FYI 8's tear seats are nearly as useless as the 911's despite its robust looking size. It lacks head room (except for kids) and legroom (except for legless).
Right. Nobody is getting back there
