    Soooo the 19" forged wheels were dropped for 2020. Must have been too expensive to produce and not enough people buying them as an option. That could be why the 2019 NX Black Line Special Edition had the 19's to clear stock 🤔

    • @KirkKreifels

      Somehow I forgot to mention that the 2020 NXs have Lexus Safety system + 2.0 which adds; Lane Tracing Assist, Road Sign Assist, Low-Light pedestrian detection, daytime bicyclist detection.

      Kirk Kreifels Lexus, Lexus, Lexus! 🥺. I don’t know why Lexus cannot put the fixed glass roof that they offer in the European market! And I don’t know if this has changed but it seems
      like you could not get any F-Sport NX’s with rain sensing wipers. That feature used to be only available on the luxury package on the regular NX and The luxury package NX was virtually impossible to find in my area. By any chance has this part changed yet on any of the packages?

    Im truly amazed at how some dislike the F-Sport grille🤔🤔🤔 the grille and red seats are what sealed the deal for me. The dealership attempted to sway me with the non-sport and that huge Pig Snout front end made me walk away (gross)

    I got the 2020 f sport in Blk with the Red interior after my '17 RX lease was up a couple of months ago. I actually find that it accelerates better than the RX. I'm very happy with it.

      Is accelerates faster than a V6 engine??? No way a 4cyl faster then a rx350 v6. V6 got more horse power.

    • @jaybanthony
      @jaybanthony 4 роки тому

      @@angelbluerider9588 Not faster overall than the RX but the Turbo engine, I felt was more responsive in the NX F Sport when accelerating. Meaning I didn't feel as much of a delay in shifting gears as I did with the RX. Again, that's just my opinion based on my experience with both.

    Great honest review. I completely agree with your observations on the NX ans some of it’s almost Lexus level and mishaps. I always thought this version was the RAV4 experience and they doubted it would sell in the grand RX shadow. Hoping Lexus will fix seats and appointments in gen 2. I like the size but prefer my RX comfort.

    This vehicle is from 2015 not? The IS is from 2014 and for 2020 they couldn't even update the infotainment system at all. Honestly Idk why they're so stingey with updates, yeah the NX sells much more than the IS but if they updated the infotainment in the IS and GS they'd probably still be able to sell much more than they are currently. Sad that they're giving up on the sport sedan market.
