Default i can't beleive Lexus is doing that to me ! am really shocked

Lexus LX570 is launching a new 2010 shape. the new one has a new shapes "kit" for front and rear bumper plus 20" whees "this part of the world comes only 18""
also the remote ignition is combined with the key now. all of that happened only 3 months after i purchased my LX570 2010. it ran only 5K km so far
i am really pissed off and couldn't imagine Lexus is doing that to me

I have been loyal to Lexus but they brings it to an end

no problem with introducing new models with changes at all
but having 2 models for the year 2010? did it happen before?
dealership assured me no changes would occur till 2011
what i really think is they sold me 2009 model with 2010 tag

If they did that to you, it's called fraud, get an attorney and sue them !!

I have never heard of a Lexus bodykit for the LX for 2010. Just iPod connectivity and factory tinted windows.

(If you have a USB port next to the gear lever, then it's 2010)

Here's the body kit:

I don't think it's stock because it looks so out of place and ugly.

That body kit is disgusting, so I would consider myself lucky if I were you.

Thats just tacked on. If you want them ugly things, I'm sure you can buy them and add them to your LX. I say, have some taste in class. That kit makes it look ricer..

I also count that new bumper very ugly, it is as the second under the first.

outside of North America, Toyota/Lexus do not do changes based on model years... changes are done in Europe for instance when they are ready, there is no such thing as 2010 or 2009 Toyota/Lexus models in Europe... I am assuming it is the same in rest of the world...

I was assured by the dealer no changes till 2011 which normally will be launched in September or November of 2010
and 2010 didn't start yet
