Are you going to buy a LX700h OT?

Honestly if nissan can put the gtr engine into the patrol Toyota can put the LFA engine in the LX.

A man can dream...

V10 LX OT! Yeah that will be marked up so much.

We're in the market to replace my wife's 2014 Dodge Durango as it continues to fall apart and cost us a lot in repairs. We're highly considering either the LX600 F-Sport or the LX700h OT(no third row). We need the extra cargo space for road trips with two kids and a 60# dog. Ideally we'd like something with a little more interior space between the first and second rows but all of those SUV options(yukon/expedition/wagoneer etc.) seem like they're too long/wide to fit in our garage next to my daily driver 200 Series. She likes the looks of the F-Sport better and the fold flat third row is a nicer integration than the third row in the 700h. If we go OT we'd definitely try to find one without the third row. If we could ever find an OT locally for her to look at in person then we'll finally, hopefully, be able to make a decision which way to go.

200>300 getting rid of the tailgate was and is blasphemous. If the Lexus version of the 300 had a tailgate I'd probably have gone with that but because it's basically an oversized LC Prado why not save some cash and get a new GX550 or a *core* LC250 instead or just keep your 200 and take care of it to the grave.

I agree getting rid of the tailgate is blasphemous, but I was under the impression the new 300 series has the same rear as the lx600/700h. Right? This coupled with the second row issues (non-sliding and center doesn't open to the back for the dog to climb through) makes my 700h not a hands down upgrade from my 200. Granted, the 200 is my favorite vehicle I've ever owned so theres that..
