Proud new owner of a 2015 GX460 Luxury model. Silver on black. As @GoHuskers said above, dealers can't keep these things in stock.

I went in just wanting the base model...look how that turned out.

This thing is sweet. It is the nicest car/SUV I have ever driven. Still trying to get used to everything, coming from a 2013 GS350 F-Sport.

What is this crocodile leather issue I need to be worried about? I'll try to get some pictures up soon.

Congrats.

You have the Luxury version so NO NEED to worry/see the Crocodile leather. Only the Premium version has the crocodile leather; however, my Sepia leather does not show that at all while the Ecru and Black leather show it.

Looks good with the larger tires. Do you have any rubbing issues?

Is there any difference between the 2014 and the 2015 GX 460? Anything other than maybe price?

Thanks!! yes you will get some rubbing on hitting a turn and dip, but no rub on turns or issues. These are as big as you can go. Offroad I have had no trouble.

Got a new black/black '15 GX460 premium today as a daily & lightish duty toy hauler. Replaced a MB, which I have now sworn off forever. This is the 3rd Lexus I've owned - first was an SC300 MT two decades ago, then an ES300 my wife had 8 years ago.

I look forward to learning about it from people's experiences on this forum.

Can't seem to post photo from iPad (maybe b/c I'm a noobie & this is post #1 for me?) - will do so once I figure it out.

Default New Lexus Family

1st Lexus purchased-
2015 GX460 Premium.
Black on Black

Great truck, just getting slightly annoyed by all the nannies.

MDX to LR4 to GX.
Drove the MDX to 180 K, then it started rusting real bad.
Drove the LR4 to 45 K, then its residual value was going to fall like a rock.
Planning to drive the GX to 200K.
