Default NX200T Release Date?

My dealer seemed to think we might see the baby RX the NX200T in 2013 here in Canada. Since I would HIGHLY consider this as my next SUV this year, does anyone have any other info on when we might for certain see this model on showroom floors? Thank you!

This is all speculation of course, but rumormills suggest the NX will be a 14 model

Well im hoping for 2013 as my dealer said when they start telling them of upcoming vehicles, that usually means they will see it in the not so distant future.

Lol. I wondered exactly that. I think once i said i wasnt interested in the RX anymore, and was looking for something a bit smaller, all of a sudden this baby RX was mentioned. And to try to hold me off buying a x3 or q5 maybe they were just throwing smoke that it was coming likely in 2013, since after the IS Lexus pretty much had renewed the line. But it could still be 2014, might make more sense after GS and IS to take a break before a bew vehicle comes out.

I think sales guy was just blowing smoke. No one seems to know anything about its release now. I guess GLK It is for me. I really like the 13 MY.

Good Luck Kid (GLK). You'll need it when it comes to reliability and maintenance costs.

Thanks. Actually the latest GLK is well rated, and if you check CR and TrueDelta it fares quite well to Japanese product. I have driven Acura for 10 years and have no concerns. Toyota/Lexus have had lots of issues lately, Honda too.

I just want something a bit more sporty. Rx was a complete disappointment to me, F Sport truly is lipstick on a pig as one reviewer noted. I want a smaller CUV and GLK is a great vehicle. Superb fit and finish and wonderful engine.
