Battle of V8 engines without oil - Lexus LS 430 vs. BMW 735 E65

In the 80s, the Japanese decided it was time to put an end to the dominance of German manufacturers in the S-class. So Toyota got the Lexus sub-brand with the LS model. Now it's worth asking Russian drivers which of cars more reliable – BMW “seven” or Lexus? Let’s take two legends – the “German” of the E65 generation and the “Japanese” LS 430. I am sure that most Russians will say without hesitation that Lexus is definitely more reliable. Moreover, engineers from the Land of the Rising Sun told how many millions of kilometers the prototypes had traveled before the appearance of the first generation Lexus LS.

BMW E65, regardless of the type of engine, is not considered as reliable as Lexus. Being a fan of this generation of "sevens", I will say that this is far from the case. It's just that old BMWs often end up in the hands of young guys who don't understand cars. They don't even change the oil, let alone service. That's why cars break down. By the way, at the expense of oil. On the channel "carwow Russian version" you can see an interesting video. Taking two cars, Lexus LS 430 and BMW 735 E65, the presenter completely drained the oil from their engines. And then they started the cars and checked which engine would last longer. I must say right away that the result was unexpected even for me.
Do you prefer Lexus LS 430 or BMW E65?
