I think it looks really good! The grille looks more cohesive on this vehicle as opposed to the current model where it looks slapped on without consideration for anything else. The rest of the body looks great!🤗

which is really kind of silly to have an f-sport variant on the lx570.

It won't be called the f-sport in any market it will be sold in. Only cosmetic accessories.

This is not the first time the LX gets a ''sport body kit'
first time was in 2010 followed by 2014 ( LX 570 s ) and even the supercharged version wasn't an F.

Man a woman in a new one was cutting through a convenience store lot at lunch, as I was parking (wanted to use the fee free ATM), felt like she was gonna crush me and go over the top, driving my tiny LS430

hash tag very angry and big car!

That grille has a lot of LS500 influence. Not bad. Wonder if we'll get a sport bumper option on US Spec LX's or just the horizontal bars of the '16 and '17.

Yeah that giant car would definitely crush an LS. Lexus SUV drivers around here are very scary to be around.

Japan is getting it too, the new kit will be offered by TRD in Japan.
It seems though that for Japanese spec vehicles this won't be factory installed like it is on the GCC/RUSSIA spec models. However it will be offered officially through TRD for customers who wish to purchase this kit.

I see a ton of AMG Gwagons and X5msports so LX fsport would def sell.

I like it, but somehow I still prefer those big horizontal slats for the LX

Eh. I'm waiting for the total redesign. It seems Toyota is getting more aggressive and updating their models every one or two years now
