Waiting on the reviews and a demo to drive for the CX90, but I’m really optimistic.
We started (and likely would have ended) our search with the LX600. In Nov/Dec they all wanted $30k over MSRP. Called all over the country and very consistent answer. As much as we like the brand and wanted that- we couldn’t justify the price. Many of the ones we looked at were priced the almost as much as an Aplina. If it was selling at MSRP, we would have likely bought it (even though we couldn’t build our own).

Also considers a GX. Then realized that it was pretty dated. Did some research and found it is being redesigned late this year or next. Would have considered the grand highlander if it were out (or the Lexus TX which will be the Lexus version the grand highlander and is still a year or two away).

Research on what was available in the timeframe we’d need led us to the X7.
