| I saw a Lexus that I initially mistoook for a Land Rover Defender. It had a Defender/Bronco/Jeep look, and I’m trying to figure out what model Lexus it was. GX 550? It looked new. Anyone have one? |

Yes, the new GX.
The new Toyota Landcruiser is built on the same platform and shares a similar look, |

Was waiting to purchase the new GX - but NO after first look. V6TT and cheap interior are a NO GO for an $80K truck. |

Why does this one have mini wheels? |

It's from 1997 - this is an old model. |

The new Hyundai Santa Fe has this look, too. Maybe the trend is to be more angular versus rounded again.
The old Lexus pictured above looks like it had a lot of plastic trim. I don't remember them looking like that? I like the rear windows. |

I think they were mostly white with a gold/champagne trim. That's how I remember them, anyway, not in this color scheme. |

The most common color spec on old Lexus models

I remember there was a similar trim on their sedans. |
