Future of Lexus discussion 2013-2015

Lead Lap
Is there any word on the next LS yet? Now that the S-class is out and BMW's next-gen 7-series prototypes are running around I'm anxious to see what Lexus is going to counter with.

I'm a little let down by the limited information gathered from this meeting
- 2015 is not a full redesign, just early production to start in Canada around April. All RX's except Fire Agate color to be produced in Canada
- Nothing on 5LS
- LX will largely soldier on at least two years
- NX starting around $37K base, typically optioned with Navigation around $42K

Thank you, Hoovey .
I expect a new LX to be unveiled late 2016 or sometime in 2017. I'm still keeping an eye out for the 2015 LX/LC, i expect a minor update, we will see how that goes.
Also, isn't the GS getting a full spindle for 2015MY?
I'm really looking forward to the next gen LS as well.

I'd like to see Lexus create a 370Z/Cayman car. I'd like a reliable 2 seater with a good interior and all around good driver car. No 4 cylinders please

I do think it makes sense for the next RX to be a 2016 model, as that gives Lexus time to introduce and market the NX solo, so it's not competing too directly with the RX, which I'm sure Lexus is already kind of worried about.
Nothing on 5LS doesn't surprise me. The LS has always been Lexus crown jewel and I bet they're staying tight lipped on that one until the very last moment. The current model is still selling well too, so it has a little more life.
I expected LX to soldier on with few changes. Not surprised.
