wow, great find! finally, some meat about the 2014...thanks for sharing!

this looks legit. the new front clip is a very bold implementation of the spindle theme, but works well. I wonder if this is the base model or the F sport pkg, especially with those aggressive strakes in the lower corners. nicely detailed lights front and rear, definitely looks more upscale. I predict a base price increase to somewhere between $54,900 and $55,700 not incl destination.

I'm excited!! can't wait for more info

these drawings/diagrams look far too detailed and polished to be anything other than factory legit in my opinion...and if so, that means the swing open gate as usual...you can clearly see the little window button in its current location, no change.

Finally something, I like it as well. I never liked the looks of the lights on the rear bumper and to me they fixed it in this drawing. Looks like LED headlights too. Can't wait to see real pics in color.

Looks to me like the Premium model, due to it having the Headlight Washers as only the Premium model has.

And I'll be waiting for someone to price out the front end parts for a pre'14 conversion.

A pic of the facelifted prado in car chat so you can see what the rear looks like.

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/car...rado-14-a.html

Some additional details below. Interesting that the floor has been lowered at the third row seats but I guess it will not change the cargo space?

- The floor has been lowered 38.1 mm at the third row of seats to ensure ample foot space.
- KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System) characteristics refined
- Low Beam: LED (Light Emitting Diode) / High beam: HID Projector type / Corner Lamp: LED
- Speedometer - Optitron meter Colour display

3. SPECIFICATION & DESIGN
3.1 EXTERIOR DESIGN:
The exterior changes include:
 Aero stabilising fins adopted on the outer mirror bases and sides of rear combination lamps
 Newly designed headlamps
 Newly designed fog lamps
 Newly designed rear combination lamps
 Newly designed front bumper & front grille
 Design change on the back door garnish
 Newly designed 17-inch (TX models) and 18- inch (VX models) alloy wheels

knowing lexus, i am sure the front bumper was designed with cost saving measures.
less paint on the new designed one for sure, more visible plastic.

I wish it had a wider wheel base or at least wider wheels to give it a little more of a brawny look.

I am really interested to see the new center console. I hope it is new and better than the current design.
