After a few months of ownership, I'd be interested in your thoughts regarding the LC vs the LX. The LX is much more luxurious I'm sure, but they styling is pretty out there. Not sure if I could have made that trade. Does the LX have all of the same technical capabilities (locking diff, ground clearance, etc...) as the LC? With the 100 series, the LC and the LX were 95% the same minus a few styling differences, but I feel like there are more differences with the 200.

I believe the main difference are AHC vs springs. More premium interior. Better headlights. A compromise on front end departure angles. 21s in this case v 18s. There’s nowhere the LC can go that the LC can’t if you’re willing to risk ripping the front lip off. I think the LC should have come with AHC seeing as it’s such a premium price in the US.

I hear you on the styling it’s definitely polarizing. I personally love it and in particular the rear on the Lexus I much much prefer. The front Id prolly give to the Toyota although I find the Lexus design more cohesive.

Great truck that should last a very long time but you have to accept it’s a dinosaur that gets 15 mpg on a good day and has yesterdays tech. But you can safely shuttle your family anywhere in Canada in the dead of winter and never think twice about if the LX will leave you stranded.

Was feeling a change so added Speciale wheels and Ti lugs. Love the improved offset and matte vs my previous gloss.

I knew something looked different. That looks Speciale! Could you take a pic from the rear, would love to see the more aggressive offset. Thanks my friend

Very Speciale! Not that I'll necessarily notice but based on my calculations should take ~23lbs of unsprung weight off the car too. Added bonus!

Hard to capture the "texture" and depth of the wheels in photos compared to reality, but Ferrari of SD sent me this photo when they swapped everything over and shows the more aggressive offset nicely:



Effectively brings the wheel face flush with the body of the car front and rear instead of being tucked in 10mm or so. Found a great deal on the wheels (50 mile takeoffs for HRE's) so if either of you gents are looking let me know! Ti lugs new from Ferrari.

Me too. And it’s in the US.

They are running some kind of crazy specials. I think tiff need to hit their numbers. The discount I received is nuts.

I’m thinking about doing something to the outside as well, but I really like how it looks now. So I’m undecided.

Nice!

I looked at an all black SVAutobiography Dynamic, but I live in snow country. I’d have had to be at the car wash twice a day for 2/3 of the year!

This is my first RR, but really like it so far.
