Yeah, I always preferred the F-Sport versions on the other Lexus vehicles but as far as the NX goes, they did an equally tasteful front end and wheels.

Well, if it has the IS and RC's steering wheel, shift ****, and, and seats...

My personal opinion: I think it's pretty ugly, especially the black fender flares and long front bumper. Interior is bad *** though.

You can still make use of the CX-5 for 6 more months before you can get the NX.

Oh my, not a fan at all. That nose is waaaay too long and waaaay too tall. The black fender flares need to go. Why does it ride so high, is it meant to have off-road capability? However, I'm basing all of this from a few pictures, it might be better in person.

They're both Hybrids and non-F-Sports - look at the blue L badge and "Hybrid" logo on the lower side rear door. Also missing the F-Sport badge on the side fenders.

Hmm. Possibly "Sport Appearance" package (lower pic) vs regular (top pic) like they did with the RX?

they mentioned 2700mm wheelbase (which is same as concept), so i would say roughly the same as concept, slightly larger than Rav4
