Question

Hmm.... Lexus.com has quite an itty-bitty picture of the new RX Silversport. I was wondering how different the grill looks from the regular ones. Does anyone have any pictures of the new Silversport edition?

I am wondering how the Silversport will look with a brushed aluminum roof rack. I still like the regular RX because I prefer the two-tone paint and the wood trim. So far I don't much care for the new grille on the Silversport either.

Also, I was reading the Atlanta Journal Constitution on Saturday March 24th and there was an article in the "wheels" section about how what a "real" luxury car is by the standards set by the gov't...etc. Anyway, it was talking about Lexus vehicles being popular and so on, but the whole point is that the picture at the top of the story column was a a Silversport RX. I didn't know what it was at first, I noticed a different grille (it was a b/w picture). I wondered what it was...now I know.

Unhappy What the hell is that?

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!! Eeeeks! Umm.... I don't think the new silversport looks all too good in silver. Oh my god, what did they do to that Lexus?????? Geez.... least Lexus could have done was to team up with Rod Millen and bang some bucks together to make the RX look fantabulous! The grill.... from that picture, to me, looks like a barbeque grill. I like the original or the Rod Millen ones better. Hmm.... wondering how the interior looks....

Silversport grill looks very similar to the IS300 grill

Plus, remember that the SS comes in an all black version, very cool.
