That is a TOYOTA internal document that has been leaked.

We will hear the official announcement very soon.

Are they trying to get a bit of the Armada look with those wheel well lines?

That looks great to me. I was worried about them feminizing it like the LX but if they can keep it similar to that and not ruin the front end, I will be very happy. At least Lexus will have one attractive SUV in their lineup

I would also imagine that this is probably a very valid look at the GX. The last gen was Prado-based obviously, so I would imagine that this one is too. Not only that, but it also follows with the "baby-LX" (though not as ugly, thank god) theme that we heard about before.

I am excited to see what the Lexus front end will look like, because the sides look sleek and attractive, but still muscular and handsome.

I didn't say it "looked like an Armada"....I think it's
pretty obvious it doesn't over-all look like an Armada.

Now we need to wait on specs, and find out how many of the "wishes-list" thread will come true.
Given the shaky economy, creeping price of oil again, and lower customer demand on suv's , lexus better price the gx to move.
