It looks cheap and ugly. Not deserved to be a Lexus.

Probably not likely. The Prado above is left hand drive and the rear door swings toward the curb just like the previous generation 1GX...

This makes the new GX spy pics look like an Aston Martin (well not quite....).

On another note, I see fold flat 3rd row seats!

That's why it's a Toyota.

Lexus will make it a bit more flashy (sorta)...

No good. Blocky, boxy, dated, industrial, and plain. Looks no more modern than a 1997 Mitsubishi Montero Sport. I hope this isn't it.

Hideous! Looks like it should be built by Scion.

Lolz this is normal in these kinds of Japanese SUV (like the Nissan Safari/Patrol and the Pajero SUV).

Such a thing is nothing new or surprising at all.......

P.S.
I wonder if KDSS is available in the LC 150 though.......
