The front and interior looks great and Lexus-ish, but the back looks like a Lincoln SUV in my opinion. Why put the silver trim along the taillights? That's ugly.

by the sound of the description it looks like the LX has it on demand where you can use it on the road as you change lanes and stuff with a press of a button. the EX looks like it benefits when you are trying to park because it looks like its a computer generated image of a bird's eye view which might not be instant. it also might be only for parking situation whereas Lexus is viewable on the move.

Gosh if I had that and a LS460L I wouldn't know which to sit in daily that interior just kills the QX56, Range Rover, Escalade, etc...This car i'm sure will reach $80,000 with a couple of options.

Yea first thing I thought of too. There are some similarities.

Sorry, major disappointment to me. The current LX looks way better. Nice interior, though. Been thinking for years that we'd replace the LX with another LX. Now will probably head to the Q7 or Escalade or (gasp) a QX56.

I wonder if they will have an executive package (which will remove the 3rd row seating and have the second row become like a recliner)

Now were just missing a hybrid to give us 400 - 450 hp.

One thing any price point for the LX?

Now this is a vehicle where the LS460's automated parking system would come in handy!! Cant believe its not offered here.

Exterior still could be a little better. Not as ugly as I thought in the first pic, but still looks like a much larger 2008 Highlander to me. And correct. The wheels dont look good here. They look exactly like the ES350 UL wheels just bigger. A good set of some simple 5 spokes will do wonders for this truck.

The interior is to die for!!! It looks absolutely SICK!!!

since it is an SUV, I would pretty much expect that you can move back seats and recline them... which is what 2nd row power seats suggest as well...

no auto-park wow oh wow Lexus you have really out done yourself this time.

Thats one thing I dislike about Lexus they put some options in other cars but dont offer it any other models. ARGH

One thing you have a high end car the LS with auto-park and the high end SUV the LX doesnt have it.

The interior is what will sell this vehicle. Overall it does a nice job of walking the line between the blingier Escalade and the more well-mannered Land Rover. It will help even more if the milage ratings are good.
