SPIED: 2010 Lexus RX in the buff!

SPIED: 2010 Lexus RX in the buff!
I happened to be driving around Nurburgring when I saw this. My wife took the picture on her old school cell phone when we were driving across the intersection.

I think I'm getting the pattern of the new Lexus line-up now. The hybrid model numbers really confuse me x]

So here it is...the non-hybrid RX is gonna have traditional headlights like the non-hybrid LS. The hybrid version is gonna have those LEDs from the LF-Xh concept just as the hybrid LS had those awesome headlights from the LF-Sh concept.

sigh...this is a far cry from the LF-Xh concept, though :(

Looks the same as a Toyota Camry from the front without the weird grille.

Dunno about that my friend. You keep repeating the same designs you become predictable and an easy target.

Look how well Mazda has done when they broke the mold a few years back. Even in these tough times they are making progress because they stand out from the crowd.

MichaelTaylor might actually--God forbid--be right this time.

The RX has been a successful formula (whether you like it or not, it is a top seller). I can see Lexus evolving the RX concept and perfecting it once again. Just like it did with the original LS which remained largely the same through 3 generations.

Agent009 is also right because at some point, Lexus is going to have to reinvent the RX concept, just like they did with the recent LS. I could see that happening 4-5 years down the line when they decide to re-engineer the RX and take it to the next level.

I wonder how the "Pebble Beach" version will look?

I know they sell a ton of the RX's, but I personally never got the styling. I always thought it was awkward with the clear lenses on the rear lights and that strange D-pillar.

From what I have heard, the outsie will have little suttle changes, however it's the inside that will get lots of attention !! Heated and cooled seats, Smart Key system, and a new Gen 6 Nav system !!!

Crapan. Garbage??? Please explain as the RX has been a HUGE hit since it was introduced !!! And I don't see Lexus/Toyota having trouble selling vehicle's or wondering what their vehicle's are worth at the end of a lease. Unlike most domestic's which will be out of business soon before Lexus/Toyota, I see MB and BMW hurting alot more than us...

So why don't you keep your "garbage" remarks to yourself. And don't say anything that you have no clue about !

AM, the RX is an upscale highlander. Lexus needs to separate itself from Toyota to a greater degree. The IS, GS, and LS are prime examples while the RX and ES are examples of what Lexus should move beyond. If you would criticize Audi for sharing w/ VW then you should also criticize Lexus for sharing w/ Toyota.

being on lexus forums a lot, an insider who works in the canadian plant verifies that the navigation will now be controlled with a knob and will not be touch screen. who knows what lexus has in store.

why would they put the RX on the nurburgring? do they think soccer moms and geriatrics are going to buy this thing for its handling prowess?

91Z I agree with you to a point. Some of the design''s and structures are shared, but that's where it stops. For the record, I wouldn't blame anyone brand from doing it, unless it's useless like GM having a Chevy and GMW truck that is 99.8% the same !!

Lexus uses thicker sheetmetal, has alot more sound dampening, and of course more plush seats, leather, and more options.

I could go on and on, but that should make the point.
