I really like these pics. The middle one from a far looks great. I really like LED addition.

yeah seems like it's about the same as the current one (which i think looks amazing). the tach area has some addition, very good. nav screen looks the same size to me

I have always love the lx, from the 450 to current, and i will say i like the updates a lot, especially the rims. The thicker spokes fir the bi SUV much better then the thin ones on the current 570. We have a 470 and i honestly think its one of the greatest vehicles made. This updated one in black or white, will buy quit stunning, its a shame i'll never be able to afford one new

^I actually like the way Lexus did it better (Just a little...). The "fangs" help connect the upper and lower grille.

Plus- a grille is easy to paint (either color match/black/etc).

yeah, and they better color matched it now to the plastic on the vents... also larger LCD screen now in the center stack, takes up all the space in the middle now.

i dont think it would be easy to find nicer interior than LX for the price... combination of semi-aniline leather, wood trip and brushed aluminium takes up most of the interior.

Yes, the interior of the LX is awesome. Everything is offered, great materals, classic Lexus/Toy design where everything is in a logical well thought out place.

Hehe
You can't definitely blame your FCC/NHTSA or whatever regulatory agency is responsible for that
