Apart from maintenance, keep in mind that the Lexus will probably have significantly better resale value when it's time to sell. Considering none of these cars are cheap, the difference will be in the thousands.
Maybe give the Mazda CX70/90 a look too. I think they are pretty handsome, have more driving personality than the Lexus, and the boxier shape will give you better visibility (personally I can't stand the poor visibility of the thick-pillared/tapered rears of most crossovers).
