11/08/2002



November 8, 2002 -- Miami, FL -- The all-new Lexus GX 470 luxury utility vehicle was named the "2003 Four Wheeler of the Year" by the editors of Four Wheeler Magazine today at the South Florida International Auto Show in Miami.

Positioned between the car-based Lexus RX 300 and the brand's premium luxury LX 470, the versatile GX combines the appointments and workmanship of a Lexus sedan with innovative full-time four-wheel drive and off-road management systems and an arsenal of dynamic handling technologies.
