I own this vehicle and it’s great for Wisconsin weather. I felt really safe in a winter storm last week with the all wheel drive thing it has. It is sluggish in the pick up but when at higher speeds it accelerates really well. Sport + suspension differences can only be felt at speeds of 80 mph or higher. I took it to 120 and the steering in Sport + felt really solid. Thankfully there weren’t any deer. Fair review I learned a lot.

2 year leaser here! gotta say that my NX has been an absolute sweetheart. did take a little to get used to transitioning over from an '09 Forester, but heres what i noticed: - detailing it is probably the biggest gripe i have. the mesh and the black chrome can definitely show mistakes - ride is slightly edging on the performance side, but that gives me loads of confidence on where i want it to go. rigidity kinda gives me better feel - engine is surprisingly peppy. can definitely feel underpowered, but the more the engine warms up, it gets even better. even in eco mode! - I really can care less for the sunroof, if it were larger, thatd be cool, but chances are i wouldnt really mind - although mine didnt have android auto, its not the worst thing.. was considering upgrading the unit to do so

Yep! The refreshed NX was about minor changes to the bumpers, lights, nav screen, and touch pad. This is the weakest f sport IMO.

I think they need a better interior and panoramic sunroof. The gauges need to be like all other f sports. I hate the touch pad. I own an is350 f sport I like the mouse better. They should offer the mark levinson system also. Overall it needs a big update.

They're putting mark Levinson in the black line edition. I'm airing a video on that this morning. Also other markets get Mark Lev in the NX and we don't. 🤔 Other markets also get pano sunroof... We need them here!

I hate that Lexus puts that black plastic around the wheel wells. To me it cheapens the look of the car. I know Cadillac and BMW do it to some of their models also but I hate it. It makes it look like a Nissan Rogue with that cheap plastic. Love the front of this car though especially in Fsport. Interior needs what the UX has. Unfortunately at the moment everything about the Acura RDX is nicer and more luxurious than the NX.

Every basia in Chicago drives one of these!! Bar NONE, Lexus makes the best, most quality vehicles in the market. Sure, there's faster and quicker and maybe more comfortable, BUT all around, you won't find a better vehicle than a Lexus. The ONLY CUV that even comes close to this is the new Mazda CX5 Turbo with that gorgeous Red Paint, BUT its price is pushing above $40 K now optioned out ($38,500) , so you're starting to get into Lexus territory.

@@KirkKreifels Yes, BUT the Mazda CX5 is larger than the UX, has a better/larger engine and is about the same price fully loaded as a UX. A full boat NX300 is running $49-$51 K which is getting into RX territory. I love the Lexus NX, but the new CX5, particularly in that candy apple red option paint, is a grand slam home run.

The NX is an updated model, the UX actually uses old technology, my source is the Lexus Dealership. I just purchased the F Sports 3 Series. It's amazing and elegant. What about the interior drove you insane? The infotainment and odometer look very similar. Also you don't get a HUD in the UX.

I worked as a lot attendant/new detailer for regency lexus in vancouver last winter at beginning, before I start working I was excited about it, but after I started I was wrong, basically I just wash cars for customers who bring in their cars for service or detailing new cars just being sold 70% cars I come across are nx , rx , nx, rx of all generations, occasionally I see is and the last generation es350, and 80% of the is I detailed are the is300 awd w 258 hp 6speed 12L/100km(which is the leastest effecient engine ever in my opinion I don't see why would people buy it and why did thee get rid of the rwd 350 in canada), and I only came across one l10 gs350 after 3 weeks working there. then I went back to school but planning on going back there this summer. hopefully I see less nx/rx and get to detail more gs/lx/rc/ls/gx.
