Yeap saw that 2 days ago same truck/specs as the 2017.

 

Yeah.. as other thread stated biggest change is increased use of Nuluxe instead of leather in some trim/color options.

 

Yeap it's not leather for sure picked up ES350 for my wife and it's anything but leather, sold her IS250 that was leather. I think it's the part of the strategy to cut the costs.

 

What do you mean that there is a increase in the use of Nuluxe?

Bit of a disappointment that you spend so much on a Lexus and you get faux leather.

"more light-weight seating material which will aid in better fuel economy" Thought I heard it all.

 

Yup... that's a pretty lame excuse to cheap out...
That said, after having their 'super premium semi-aniline' offering, Nuluxe is probably an improvement...

 

Lexus is SO LAME with their marketing. You would think as lazy as they are for not refreshing the GX significantly in a decade, their 10-page brochure could at least feature new photos. Nope. Just recycled content. That picture of the GX towing the boat has been around since (I think) 2014.

Sometimes I wonder if the brochure is summarizing the GX, or a day in the life of a young, super-confident female professional who lives in a high-rise condo.

I predict there will never be a new generation Lexus GX. I think we are looking at the last few years right now.

 

I think this is it. Lexus is trying to attract a younger buyer, as a women, I certainly resonated with the female who is dressed well, looks ready for a day out, and is wearing nice clothes and is holding a fancy purse. This is what Lexus is trying to attract.

 

Absolutely.... because that well-dressed young woman will certainly need a true BOF 4 Wheel Drive with Locking in her daily travel to the closest Ulta for her cosmetic and perfume fix!

Just kidding... I see almost all women driving these, so it doesn't surprise me a bit.
I use mine for off-roading to kayak destinations, but I'm the exception, not the rule.

 

I can't remember what I stated before since I have only owned GX since March but mostly 40+ folks I see driving these. Actually about equal between M/F. I see a lot of younger people driving GX 470s.

I guess it kinda goes with production numbers... the '10-'13s are quite rare for me to see in this area since production was almost half each year what the '14+ are seeing aside from the 2010s.

 

Lol. Can you will get the GX with KDSS? What year is yours? Any mods?

 

Actually all 460s have KDSS....

 

yes, it has KDSS... it's a 2015, with no mods as I'm still well under warranty...
