Looks great to me! We'll be buying this LX off one of you in a few years! Truly looks like an LS on the inside.

not crazy about the rearview, esp the tail lights. this is a mature/traditional looking car, and they're putting on a bit of RX350's youngie's tail lights look it there. whenever traditional cars co's do this, ie. the 02 bmw 745iL, people always ask, why?

The interior is good.
But that rear end is one the ugliest I've seen. That rear really looks like some fugly****

Old thread but I have to ask.
Why do Lexus SUV's have this black ugly frame around the rear window?
It just NEEDS to be tinted when it's like this.

Where did they look for inspiration, the Mitsubishi Endeavor? When I'm in the market for an SUV I'm definitely going to be looking into a used LX470.

Do you guys know if the 570 has a ladder frame like the previous generations, or unibody?

99% sure it's a ladder frame, rigid rear axle, indep front suspension like now. Not sure if there are coils in front like on the GX/4runner/FJC or torsion bars (current LC, overseas hilux), though. Unibody flexes too much. My honda is unibody. When I put it on jacks (all wheels off the ground), the doors don't close as crisply as when the wheels are on the ground. That tells me the unibody is flexing. Not so w/ my 4runner and LX. The body is merely a decoration. You could strip the body off the chassis and drive the frame w/ engine only w/ no difference in offroad performance.
