Congratulations. 
Great combination of luxury/refinement, comfort, and off-road capability. 
And, unlike the its closest-competitor Range-Rover, it probably won't spend most of its time in the shop for repairs. 
Now that they have a brand-new paint-job, BTW (and Lexus paint-jobs, IMO, rank among the best), I highly-recommend this to help keep it looking that way.

Have been using Zaino products for over 10 years.Great stuff.
They are doing well financially.My s-i-l owns a Allstate insurance agency that does very well and my daughter is VP of Operations for a company.She drives the LX and has a company perk gas card which works well with her 100 mile round trip commute.
I posted a thread earlier about my s-i-l's S Class having an electrical short in the dash or console which was repaired after 3 days at Mercedes service.
He owned two LS 460's.The last one an 460L.He is going back to the LS and will buy the new generation '13 when it's available.
They're living the good life and saving for retirement too.
I know the LX570 is bought through his business.Maybe both his vehicles are.

You're right Mike.Zaino doesn't have a heavy scratch remover like Scratch Out..One Zaino product Fusion is a abrasive paint cleaner and swirl remover that safely removes minor scratches and another is non abrasive Z5 which is a polish that has swirl-hiding properties.
Never tried Scratch Out but may.

watch out because if those scratch removers are not used correctly ( and even sometime when used the right way) you will end scratching the clear coat

My s-i-l's email review of the '13 LX vs the '10 on his 200+ ride home from the dealer in MD today.
Many upgrades from white contrast stitching seats, heated steering wheel, cool box for drinks, two dvd screens that dont block your view like the headliner unit, rear heated seats, the nav is great with no more updates necessary and the app features that sync to ur phone etc...... the Enform software rocks. Show you when I see you.What you load to Ipad or phone can be used on Nav. Also, the radio is better. No idea why but its crisper, and louder at lower volumes. She may have had speaker issues in the '10 because its night and day difference. The ride again not sure why is also better mainly turn radius and handling as well as the slope line improves driver visibility. Even Leslie said it seems like a whole new truck, not just a refresh. The lights in mirrors is slick and the new rims and interior are sweet so its everything you hope for in an LX. Lastly, we averaged 18.4mpg entirr ride back. Not terrible for boat
