LX owners, how do you answer the question 'What do you drive?

V8 baby.
 
I have referred to mine as "the minivan" since I bought it, now all my friends are familiar with the term and call it the minivan too. Whenever anyone new to the group hangs out, they're like "wait, you ran Hell's Revenge in a minivan?!?"

⚽ :princess:
 
I almost gave up on this project. Printing the curved badge for the C-pillar was a nightmare—failure rate was just way too high. But after months of trial and error, I finally figured out a way to make it work. I made several prototypes and left them outside for a couple of months to torture-test them. As you can see in the photo, some materials are starting to turn yellow, even though they’re all supposed to be UV-resistant.

Next up, I’m experimenting with different color combinations—not just to make them look interesting, but also to hopefully reduce how much they’re affected by UV exposure.

They look great. I would place one of those on the tailgate. Not sure red would be my color though:)

I thought red might give off a TRD Pro vibe, but you're right—it’s a bit too much for the LX
 
I say I drive a "Mom" car or a Off road minivan.. or Mall Crawler...
What I have heard is that most of the times an LX will be seen as a "Mom car" and the LC as a "Dad car".

I drive an LC, but if I drove an LX I do not think would ever add a badge like this. Maybe even de-badge. Lexus in general are already seen as snob-people-cars, adding badges saying "Lux" would only exacerbate that. To each their own though. :cool:
 
Unfortunately, the previous design wasn't strong enough, so I ended up modifying it a lot. Here's the latest badge—I'll be putting it on my truck next week! Wdyt?

Depends on the company.
Wife/Family - The lx
LC friends - The 200
LC nerds/parts - J201
Everyone else - Old SUV

That front chrome bumper is HORRIFIC
I bolted it on when it was brand new and I did a lot of parallel parking in NYC -- at this point it makes a nice engine bay step. It's eventually getting replaced with a full Ironman bumper and bull bar (in black, which another set of people will no doubt find horrific).
 
I'm glad I can rely on you guys to give it to me straight -- I had it on there for so long I developed something of a blind spot. I just figured I'd take it off when I got a proper front bumper, and sort of lost sight of it being stupid in the first place.

So we lost some weight today.

Anyway, back to the thread...
 
I say LX. And I can see the person picturing a GX. And that’s what you call stealth wealth LOL.
