Looks like that guys' legs is as wide as the LX' grille.

Lots of "in your face chrome"

Everything is pretty aggressive except for these weak horrible offset wheels.
Geez, lexus, grow some bigger nads already

You're right, everything looks on point and then we get disappointed by the weak wheel game.

I hope something will be done about this.

I've heard January 2016 it will be available on dealer lots. So an announcement relatively soon I'd wager.

The front end of this vehicle looks totally out of place...it seems like they tried too hard to out bling the Escalade, and failed! I may be proven wrong when I see it on the road and in a darker color, but for now I do not like the front end one bit. The back looks good, the interior is a very nice upgrade but that front end just ruins it for me. I was looking forward to this update, but that nose may lead me to a yukon denali or escalade.

apparently it's not a new vehicle, just a major refresh?
