Cool Went to the dealer today..Wasn't expecting to see this.

I went in to get my secondary air intake replaced and I had them update my Nav maps. This LX looks sweet, I think it is safe to say this puppy will only be seeing asphalt The guys that put my wheels on also did the cars here.

















Some others.

I wonder if the LX has this $30K WALD package?

Can anyone tell what kind of tires are on the black GX? Wheel size? I like the look, but would like to keep my factory Fsport wheels.

I got a new GX for the loaner. Damn my GX rides rough with 22" wheels and high performance tires. I may consider different tires next time. I intentionally ran over speed bumps to compare the two.
The loaner did not have air suspension.
Comparing my 2011 to the new model, the new Nav and audio interface is nice, Besides that it is the same truck with some cosmetic changes. I always planed on pushing my GX to 200+K miles and I have no reason to change my mind after experiencing the new GX.

Just my thoughts on the one I drove.

The two SUV's look like something straight out of the Philippines!

Tecman...

Did the Lexus dealer covered the secondary air intake repair under extended warranty? What's your mileage?

The next time you are there can you check on the sold price of the Starfire Pearl 2017 LX570 and the tire and rim size.

I'm thinking about trading my GX460 for the LX570.

Both valves and pump replaced under warranty. I have asked a few people there what the LX sold for and no one knows. I had a salesman tell me today that he thinks the wheels were $9500. The GX has $78k on the sticker.

I just did an online chat with Lexus and was sent an attachment showing the LX listed price was $125,423. That seems low!
A link to the LX with a price that had to be before it was modded...

thanks for the PICS on the LX. Thats a WALD kit with fenders front bumper and rear bumper attachements with their trademark wheels.
somebody got doped whoever bot it. Marks up price huge!
Im waiting on next generation LX as the current version is very sloshy in driving and worse than our gx.

Do you know if they applied that firmware update listed in that nav related TSB? I'm gonna have this done later this summer.

Not sure about the firmware update being done. I am aware of one for the newer Nav but didn't know there was one for mine? I have used it several times since the update and have not noticed any difference.
