Default Seven-seater RX: Is it coming, or is it coming...

Because I just don't see any way these rumors aren't true? Apparently, dealers were pissed when the RC came out, because they've been asking Lexus for one of these for years. So can you think of a compelling reason we won't see a seven-seat RX in Tokyo?

I think we will eventually see one here in the states. In regards to Tokyo, your guess is as good as mine....

I'm with you Greg.

If I want a 7-seater I would get a minivan.... wait a minute, I already have a minivan , my wife likes her Odyssey and I like my RX perfectly fine with its current roomy 5 seats configuration.

you must have small kids in the back to think 3 in the back row is roomy.

2 teenagers and an adult kid, but still roomy enough for the 3 of them.

Warning: could offend, don't read too much into this if you're sensitive to weight!

I looked up the "Nebraska average weight", and this was the first link on google from 2006:

What looks big to some could look small to others.
