Default New RX fascia on face of Sienna

New RX fascia on face of Sienna...good or bad? I think Lexus would sell a ton.

I think that's ugly. please no, I wouldnt be able to tell if it's a Lexus or Toyota. It would definitely de-valued The Lexus Brand

Maybe it's just the angle, but that grill overwhelms the vehicle, even one as large as a minivan.

It doesnt flow with the rest of the vehicle. They would need to style it integrating the grill. Secondly, the current gen Sienna doesnt have the build quality to qualify as a Lexus. Can you imagine how owners will feel when everything starts rattling and squeaking at 10k miles? At least the one that I rode in when I called car service. Yes I purposedly peaked to see how many miles the thing had with the amount of rattles and squeaks.

The Ct200 (one of the worst cars ever built -I put 28k miles on one) couldn't devalue the brand ....
