Default Favourite Angle

Just for fun, what's your favourite view/styling of your NX? As I expect with many, after getting a new car the first few weeks I spent a lot of time looking over everything carefully. Lots of styling features to like, some more than others. I was never really a big fan of the new large Lexus grille when I first saw it appear on the '16 RX, but it grew on me over the years and while I do like it quite a bit now, it does still give me a sense of "delicate". I guess I could say the same for the rear, while I like the general styling, the fact that the rear hatch is now essentially become part of the bumper as well, also a bit delicate looking. But after a few weeks I've found that the sides are most interesting to me. The way the rear doors bow in slightly at the bottom and the horizontal crease separates before reaching the rear door handle is very interesting to me. However, this continues to be one of my favourite sight lines. Really like the way the side flares out over the rear tires.

2023 NX350h pearl white. Have to say the best angle is the front. Wait nevermind the rear. Nah the sides and 21 inch wheels. No have to be the 14 inch infotainment screen.

So, sounds like you like wider hips! It is a great view. I really like them all. Having said that, there is one view I don't like. That would be the view out the windshield. I'm 5'11" and I cannot see the front of the car. I like knowing where the front is by looking out and being able to see where the front fenders and nose end. In the 450h+ you can't see anything past mid-hood.

But it really is a beautiful vehicle.
