Take a close look at the photo photo in post #46 of this thread. The display is clearly a larger version of the current display which is not a hi-res, glossy screen (glass - similar to an ipad). In this day and age it blows me away that luxury makers still use 480p cameras and low contrast screens in any of their vehicles. The RX screen is comparable to the screen on the X5 which blows the NX screen out of the water. The reverse cam on the NX is a joke. A 1080p cam would not increase costs much, but would further differentiate the brand. The image is the same image as my wife's Toyota Sienna....

Don't forget that video and video stills are rendered (concept) graphics and not the real car. A glossy screen would not be feasible due to glare from the sun. To me, back up cameras are just an aid, and you should always use driver intuition and mirrors to scan your environment when reversing your car.

Very disappointed the 2018 NX doesn't have the LFA inspired digital gauge on the F-Sport. What was Lexus thinking?! They added that on the refreshed GS F-Sport. Granted the GS is a much more expensive vehicle, but they have done it on the IS 250 F-Sport since 2014.

I was talking to few friends about this too and even in the dealership. We are know that feature can totally come to NX. I think Most likely Lexus is holding it off and just not make things to be perfect lol. Hope future update can have it.

I wonder if the refreshed NX will come with the upgraded Lexus Safety System+ like in the GS and RX (All-speed adaptive cruise, lane departure alert with lane keep assist, pre-collision with pedestrian detection, intelligent high beam), or the lesser one in the IS and ES (High-speed adaptive cruise from >25mph, lane departure alert, pre-collision with pedestrian detection, intelligent high beam). It's quite confusing that Lexus calls them the same thing.

I have heard mixed reviews on the touch pad. I wonder if it has been improved. I am waiting on the NX 2018, it's going to be my next car.

In Canada I have heard that the Lexus Safety System + is supposed to be standard across the board for all cars soon so I would hope that it would be standard in the 2018 NX. The touch pad is supposed to be an updated version so lets hope it is actually improved in useful ways. I too would like to buy a 2018 NX.
