Default 2008 Lx570

Hey guys!

I've been searching and researching and lurking these forums for a while with no posts. Hoping, wishing, waiting for the new 570 to show itself and had the opportunity to see a white one in person today. Was at the dealership and just came off the truck for a buyer who previously spoke for it.

Overall I believe that Lexus did a great job with the SUV. The rear was actually very attractive VS the pictures that have been shown lately. Interior is a huge improvement (although I'm not a fan of the cluttered up dash and middle console). Leather seats were supremely soft and preforated finally!

I did not get a chance to drive it but after spending a good 1/2 hour with the car I decided that it was not for me. I took my two names off of the list and am ordering 2 Benz GL550's tomorrow. The LX just did not have any sex appeal to me and for some reason I like the GL! TO each his own I guess.

Thank you for the information and it was fun waiting with you guys. I'm off however to a new type of automobile with different agenda.

PS-I'll post pics of my new S65 when I get a chance! That's a fun car.

Happy New Year!!!

Everyone has different tastes and needs that is why there are many choices in the auto industry.
I thank you for the description of the LX570"s interior that is exactly what I was looking in my other test drives , front seat comfort. This will reaffirm my decision toward the LX570. As of yet the new LX has no being sighted in this area.
Congratulations on your selection to you and your family.

HAPPY and a HEALTHY NEW YEAR

GL is more masculine looking, so I understand your decision. The styling of the new LX is really a shame in my opinion...all of their new sedans have been such an improvement over previous generations that I think people were expecting the same here. The old LX was macho, masculine, AND elegant. I've got to say that this one looks anything but.
