Woo hoo!!!
Traded my 2010 gx 460 for my new baby .
I'm loving it ! It's a mercury metallic with black interior.
Loaded with everything except the radar cruise control.
Will post pics soon!

I have a few questions and searched and searched and didnt find any answers.
How cold does the cooler get?
Can I have the camera automatically only show the front and not the sides every time?
Does the LX have the easy exit feature which moves the seat back all the way when you turn the car off like the GX?
Are there in channel vent shades from any manufacturer?
Thanks so much!

Congrats on your new LX! The easy exit feature regarding the seat/steering wheel movement will now be standard on the freshened 2013 LX that was just introduced today.

Man I'm kinda second guessing myself for not holding off for the new one for the turn signal lights and easy exit which was available in my GX 460 . There's something classic and endearing about the previous LX design though I feel.I'm envious of the led day lights though...

Wow...where's the love guys? One response for a brand new purchase of a LX 570 in a Lexus forum?

Congrats man! Not a lot of LX owners I think... pretty rare, but still awesome, vehicle. What spurred the switch from the GX?

Congrats on the NEW LX!

I know it has to be exciting!. Tell us how you are liking.

Traffic is slow here compared to when the LX570 was first introduced. There are not a lot of these so I guess it has to be expected. I live in south Jacksonville and only see one other LX on a regular basis.

Enjoy!

Thanks !
I switched because my 3 sons needed the extra space. I also really like the styling of the lx more. I love the auto leveling feature , cameras among other options . I do miss the gx kdss however. After 30 k miles on the gx I feel it handles better than the lx. It's to be expected ofcourse from the size.

Very nice - lets see some pics.

We went from an LS to an LX - was surprised about the lack of traffic on the LX - agree with prior post that it is likely due to not many out there as compared with the GX, LS, etc.

that's correct, the lx is so rare in terms of the absolute number of them available. another reason is its extremely high resale value, making it a very expensive used car to own. all those factors help make the lx570 quite a rare vehicle to see

congrats to OP on your new ride! show us some pics!

Dog! I'm not much on SUVs but a new LX passed me today. I was stunned how good it looked! Enjoy the ride.

Thanks for all the kind comments !
I will post pics this weekend . I really dislike winter now, can't wax in this frigid weather .
I'm loving my ride. I like the comfort mode the best. I also wish the cool seats were cooler like the 2013 Lx.
I rarely see a lx as well and I live in nyc. And think most owners aren't forum people.
For some reason I really like the low key ,understated and elegant styling of the 2008-2011 version better. I have to tell myself that to justify not waiting a few more months for hid,improved cooled seats,side mirror turn lights,easy exit, etc.
Be back with pics soon!
