Default Robb Report rated "Best of the Best"

I had the issue sitting at work on my desk for 2 days before I got a chance to open it. Pleasantly surprised to see the new 570 got their "Best of the Best" award for SUV!!
They seem very Porsche/Mercedes/Range Rover, I really didn't expect to see the Lexus there.

I looked it up and they have not fully updated yet as far as Best of the Best, it seems...

http://www.robbreport.com/Categories/automobiles

But the LX is already listed under the Recommended category.

At the Lexus LX 570 assembly plant in Yoshiwara, Japan, master craftsmen oversee final fitting and balance procedures. For quality control, robots shoot 1,300 photos as the vehicles proceed down the assembly line. But human hands sand the paint...

It totally deserves it

Its an amazing vehicle, in direct competition with the Range Rover Supercharged! And since its a newer design and has better technology....Robb is right!
