Lexus LX570 to debut at NYIAS
Lexus have announced that they will introduce a new LX570 sport utility vehicle at the 2007 New York International Auto Show. The third generation of the LX-series is supposed to be developed independently of its one-time kissing cousin, the Toyota Land Cruiser. The move is aimed to eliminate overlap between the two brands and mitigate image problems that arise from selling a rebrand. Based on the nomenclature, expect to see Toyota's i-Force 5.7-liter V8 from the Tundra under the hood, as well as the de rigueur host of automatic, electric, heated, cooled, foldaway, wireless, auto-compensating power accessories.

Hopefully we will see the actual LX a day early like what happened with the IS-F
Also I hope the LX will have more hp than the Tundra, 400 hp would be nice.
2008 Porsche Cayenne S: 385 hp ($57,900 US)
2007 Mercedes Benz G500: 292 hp ($83,700 US)
2007 Range Rover Supercharged: 400 hp ($92,035 US)
Hopefully the LX570 wont see a huge increase in its price, so about $70,000 US (MSRP)

I am already happy to see the Tundra now being sold down here, and finally happy that Toyota/Lexus are looking to match some of their colleagues in the power department.

The press release doesn't say anything about the LC...I wonder if maybe the body style with L-Finesse (is that even confirmed?) will be the different body developed independently...
