The new shoes look like they're 19's!

I see dual exhaust on the LF-X concept but not on the spyshots.
Edit: on second examination actually it's on both, integrated on the LF-X and exposed on the RX mule.

It would make sense to space the new launches out...if the 'VX' LF-X appears.
Not too familiar with the 3rd row business but wouldn't it signal the impending LF-X if the new RX came without the 3rd row option?

"The RX will be undergoing a major update for the 2009 model year, with production beginning in late December of 2007, toward an on-sale date of early spring of 2008."

Next generation of RX
Will it be the next generation of RX for 2009 model? New RX is supposed to be getting bigger so it can have three rows of seats, the same 3.5 liter V6 as the current model, making it an RX350, as well. The engine will grow to 3.7 liters after two years, when a 400 plus horsepower hybrid variant is introduced. Both engines should be hooked up to a new six-speed automatic transmission. Again, the RX will come standard with front wheel drive and offer all-wheel drive as an option.

I got this information straight from the source. There are a few other items I'm waiting to get confirmation or hands on experience with before I add those (including any official target dates for the F line rollouts).

Have you heard of any official word about a crossover larger than the RX, like the rumoured JX?
