Does 2018 has an option for panoramic roof in US?
I went to Lexus NX Configurator and I don’t see it as an option.

When you build it the regular moonroof is in the luxury package. The panoramic roof is an additional $1,100 and described as The NX offers an available expansive moonroof with unique outer-sliding design that provides a larger opening and more interior headroom than conventional moonroofs. In the above Youtube clip it can be seen at the 38 second mark.

The NX in this video is the pre-refreshed version with the optional panoramic moonroof. This isn’t a USDM car though. AFAIK the moonroof was not offered in the US market, just like the 360° camera system.

Panaramic Roof and 360 camera stoped us from buying 2017 this weekend.
Hope we won't regret it

A Lexus sales rep told me the panoramic is only available on in Europe and not in the US

When you go to Lexus.com and build an NX the moonroof is included in the premium package. The expansive roof is under options for an additional $1,100.

Super disappointed the non F sport NX's in the United States won't have the front end the rest of the world gets. Also...it really needs to have Mark Levinson, HUD, 360 degree camera, and Apple Carplay. I traded my 2015 fully loaded Luxury model NX for a reason for a Macan. The Macan offered much more...the 2018 NX has almost nothing new...besides pedestrian detection. We have been considering a hybrid lately, but it might have to be a Prius...it offers more safety tech and HUD. The thought of going to the Toyota dealer vs the Lexus dealer does not make me excited. Come on Lexus!

HUD definitely. Rented a Buick Lacrosse that had it when we were in Florida last winter. Thought at first might be gimmicky but extremely helpful. I am however most disappointed in no panoramic roof. It is only going to be in the European version. It is showing up as an option on Lexus.com but called Lexus and they stated only the standard moonroof. It looks so good on the Youtube clips I have seen. Lexus missed one here. It is a buying breaker for us. Can't believe they would build a vehicle different for two continents. Someone paying $50,000 for an NX will not balk with paying $51,000 for that beautiful roof.

During the course of the model year, there can be extended periods of time when the current production run does not include some option combinations, even though the "build" tool on the Lexus website says that they are available. For example, for the 2017 NX model year, the Lexus website said that the NX with the Luxury package was available, but Luxury package NXs were only built during production runs very early in the model and at the very end of the model year, and, through most of the model year, Luxury package NXs were not being built.

So, I wouldn't be surprised if, at some point in the 2018 model year, there would be a production run for the NX that included the panoramic roof. Often, at the very beginning of a model year, the production runs will include only more basic package and option combinations.
