The front end with that dropped center section (which appears to be the popular style these days, Audi, VW etc) reminds me of the mask from the Scream Movies.

Too much L-Finese on the front end of the black one.

Which looks very out of place by-the-way...!

Anyone have side or rear shots of the below possible version of the 2009 RX ??

In my opinion it looks pretty close to the camouflaged spy pics..

I call photoshop on that. The lights are just our current lights warped around, and so is the grille. The foglights are also the same as current models. The side mirrors are also warped to look "sleek," but everything else is exactly the same.
