Old..
If you look closely, you'll see that the article pertains to the European model Land Cruiser, which is the GX470 here in America (slightly different headlights, tail lights, tire on rear door, and the 4Runner Sport wheels).. You can see the American Land Cruiser in the background of the top pic.

Updated Land Cruiser (think LX 470)...
This is a link to an article about the updated Land Cruiser (Land Cruiser 100) that goes on sale in the Netherlands (Europe) in October:

To sum things up, It'll get Bluetooth and the rear view camera standard if you get the navigation option. So if the Land Cruiser gets Bluetooth for 2004 than most probably the LX 470 and LS430 will also get bluetooth, and maybe the others also.

Thanks GXS
Thanks for clarifying the difference between the European Land Cruiser and Land Cruiser 100. I was disappointed with the new model shown in that link, but am relieved to hear that the US version of the Land Cruiser/LX470 won't look like that.
Any idea whether there's a new model planned for the Land Cruiser? It's been the same model since 1998?

The LX470 is not sold in the UK.
The Landcruiser has always been in two forms.
The Landcruiser Amazon has been known as that for at least 4 years.
The GX470 is not sold in the UK.

The Landcruiser comes in three forms:
The 100-Series which is what you call the Amazon and is sold in America as the Land Cruiser and the LX470.
The 70-Series which is a rugged FJ-40 looking thing mostly sold in Africa and Australia
The 90/120-Series which is the GX470 and is also sold as the new Land Cruiser in Europe. Used to be called the Prado or Colorado. The new 4-Runner is based on this chassis.

What is a LX500? I like the treatment to the headlights, not so hot on the hood scoop. Could this be the 2004? Or is this someone's tricked out LX?
Are those headlights "angel eyes"?

Please don't ever post that disgusting looking peice of Shi* on Club lexus again!! 
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it. I was going to cry...sniff sniff...PS- Somebody who knows some big dogs at lexus, please tell them to throw a V-10 or a V-12 in the LX. Or at least give us More than 330 horses. PS- I think that the old man wants to slap some 22's on his 2002 LX. I will post pics when we get the roof rack painted pearl white! It should look very similar to the 2k3.
