I kind of feel the same way with newer luxury cars; there's very little in the way of "luxury" in terms of actual build quality, things that feel strong, nice materials, etc.
Everything is all tech.
DriverJeff's '13 GX 460 feels extremely well built, upscale and buttery smooth. It doesn't feel cost-cut in any way, and very much like my '09 LS 460. No new cars feel like that, and I'm finding newer Toyota/Lexus products feeling very plasticky. The only exception to this IMHO is the LC.
