Default Confused .. whats the difference between 2008 & 2009 models ?

I was very excited to hear about the "new 2009 RX", looking for spy pictures, etc. expecting a major change (i.e RX300 to RX330) .. but I was taken back to see the 2009 model looks the same !!
I have not seen it in the showroom, only on the internet.
Does anyone know if there are any changes ?
Is this shape that will remain for 4 years ??

No major differences between the 08 and 09. There is a Pebble Beach edition now for 09.

Scroll down and there is a long thread called "2009 Lexus RX" that should give you more info.

The new design should be scheduled for 2010.

Typical of Lexus to add bells and whistles to the last batch.

Yo. I believe the Truffle Mica color is new? and exclusive to the PB. web site says.......

RX 350 AWD RX Pebble Beach EditionBase MSRP: $41,380 – $42,780 [1]
Available in an array of exterior colors, including a new and distinctive Truffle Mica. The RX Pebble Beach® Edition is available in Obsidian, Classic Silver Metallic and a distinctive Truffle Mica.

3 color choices isnt much of an array
