thanks 1SICKLEX, are the rumors saying this fall or sping for an '07 model or are you not hearing much on that? I am hoping this is a 6/7 passenger, car-based SUV seater that is bigger than the RX... especially since early photos of the redesigned '07 MDX don't seem to be what I want.

Hearing fall 07....should debut at an upcoming auto show...I never thought of 6 seating, I heard 5 or 7.

yeah, 6 seating catches us folks looking to avoid the minivan if it provides the walkthrough to the back row and the carseats can stay in the middle captains chairs. Tahoe has it and the Buick Enclave concept had 6 seats. Actually what made me think 6 seater in this case was XeroK00L's post on the 1st page. Damn... Fall '07 would be too far out for me.

"JX 470: The big brother to the RX 330 crossover comes off the new GS sedan platform in mid-2007. For styling hints and dimensions, look to the Lexus LF-X (nee HPX) concept car, which had a 116-inch wheelbase, 194-inch overall length and room for three rows of seats. Power would come from a 4.3-liter V-8, although a 3.5-liter V-6 also might be offered. Competitors include the Infiniti FX35 and FX45."

Good to hear that, as I suspected, the designation will be JX for this vehicle. I am glad if the 'JX replaces LX' rumors are untrue, as JX sounds more like a midsize model.

The LF-X concept really nice, to bad its to hardcore for many Lexus owners. I reallylike the futuristic look.

Anyone have any newer info on this one? Thanks.
