I dont know If I like this yet. I HATE HATE HATE the chrome rear lights. I need to think about this interior. There's things I like and dont like...hmmmmmmmm

DougLikesBMW · 10-29-2008, 12:48 PM

Lol...Lexus is such a fucking joke.

HKS what did you expect dude? That this SUV was gunna look good?

I couldn't give a damn about the new RX...it's just a woman's grocery shopping car.

nicosusername · 10-29-2008, 12:54 PM

the rear lights remind me of the new sti hatchback

06-325 · 10-29-2008, 12:59 PM

It looks worse than the current model. I wish they would make the styling more unisex. I wanted to buy it but the only people who were driving it were women and gay men.

AtoB · 10-29-2008, 01:18 PM

ehh... not a fan of any of the lexus designs.

Mandeep · 10-29-2008, 01:58 PM

wait...my mom took her car to get serviced and gave her the new rx as a loaner....it looks a little different than last years model. Are they changing it again?

This SUV furthers my disliking of Lexus styling. God, if anything it's a step down from the current RX.

The grille is horrible; too many slats and wtf is wrong with the chromed upper edges. The sides are completely nondescript, and it looks like they almost did something interesting along the bottom of the doors. The rear looks too derivative of a CX-9, and the altezza-style taillights are EASILY some of the ugliest things I've ever seen.

The interior looks interesting though. I like the orientation.

Even that thing looks weird. The bottom of the grille has a weird curve to it, and the whole thing looks like a tub with tiny little slits for windows. Better than what the RX turned out to be though...

Yeah +1 on all the points guys, I hate this...thing! I had to sleep on it

I was falling asleep and didnt pay much attention to it.

Offtopic: Looking at the 370z again, I really like it !!

MJC///M3 · 10-29-2008, 03:18 PM

mehhhh....not a fan.

b335i · 10-29-2008, 03:18 PM

The OP pics remind me of the Hundai

ugly MF!

Spec 1 · 10-29-2008, 07:04 PM

Wow this thing is ugly; almost as bad as what Toyota Corp has done to the Highlander. Bubbly and ugly.

vAnt826 · 10-29-2008, 09:32 PM

LOL.

FAIL. The current generation RX is actually pretty nice looking. This looks worse then the IS-F.

josephr25 · 10-29-2008, 10:34 PM

I'll reserve judgement until the thing comes out. I remember the current one coming out and it looked a lot more aggressive than the 1st gen. The rear end looks way too much like the Subaru hatch though (which I like)

My mom has one and it isn't a bad car.

koei · 10-29-2008, 10:41 PM

Cant really see that clearly from the scan but looks not bad to me. Much improved styling than the current one. I really hated the overbite look which is why I forbid my mom from getting one. Interior looks much nicer too. The body bulk seem to have increased, almost seem like Cayenne.

ScottyGams · 10-29-2008, 11:12 PM

toyota returns to the altezza lights...

finally a lexus that aspires to look like a 1995 Honda Civic
