Took this screen shot from their computer system

 

Looks not much is changing. Not surprised though.

 

Good to know, I'm not missing much by pulling the trigger on my 2016 F-Sport. Although I would be a little disappointed if they had added the nightfall mica that the RX350 has, but I still love my ultra white with rioja red.

 

when are these supposed to be in show rooms again? thinking of pulling the trigger on a 2016 lease.

 

So does this mean there completely discontinuing autumn shimmer on the Es as well?

 

^^^ and Matador Red Mica gone (but unclear if it will be gone for the F Sport).

USB is being replaced by USB 2.0 and Molten Pearl (orange) on an NX?? RC F sure but not so sure about the NX. This will be interesting to see.


NOTE the pic from the OP - the info applies to Canada

 

Well damn that sucks my Es is autumn shimmer. Well let's see if it stays on that.

 

Since the Canadians get nicer things with their NX... One would assume U.S. won't get much if anything at all.

 

Looks like FWD will continue, contradicting another thread about NX's only being AWD...perhaps more changes to come before the '17's are released at the end of the year?

 

I believe Lexus is making Lexus Safety System Plus standard across the range for MY2017. So stuff like Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Pedestrian Detection, All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, and intelligent high-beam headlamps, will become included.

 

The new colors are correct for 2017 NX F-Sport as Lexus Japan just announced the changes for Japanese domestic market.

You will see a picture of a orange NX.

Besides, some new details are here for Lexus JP market which probably applies to elsewhere (US, Canada, Australia, UK, etc)

For orange exterior color which must be a F-Sport NX, the interior comes with orange stitches to match it.

Same rule applies to USB 2.0 on 2017 NX ---- you will get blue stitches in the cabin.

Also note that the heading of the press release for Japanese market (above link) is about the special version - "Cool Touring Style" for CT and on the same page, you will see minor changes for various Lexus vehicles including NX, RC, RC-F

And if anyone wants to see a picture of how USB 2.0 is constructed, there is one but in Japanese.

Press release for introducing USB 2.0 (Heat Blue Contrast Layering) to RX200t 2WD F-Sport in Japan
