A similar shade debuted on the 2012 ES here, so its a possibility

I know which one your talking about but no. I'm talking about the 2012 Touring Special Edition

We have one at the Automall I work out as a loaner car. If I find it not loaned out, I'll post a pic

It adds some much needed aggressiveness to the RX350 lines; I like it.

Digging the facelift overall except the extended chrome bits, which is really tacky IMHO.

too bad they didnt add GS seats to it, well GS would be impossible, but similar seats.

I believe that suits best for a major restyling which is scheduled for 2014. So far this facelift ain't that bad, major interior changes plus the spindle grill.

looks like a CT steering wheel (fine), but still wish the asymmetric silver 'thing' in the middle was redesigned.
