Lexus always copies designs from MB so I believe next generation of Lexus GX or LX is going to look very similar to new G class. (other examples, LS copies S; GS copies E)

other G pictures from autobild.de

I dont like it, looks too much like the lexus. MB should keep the body and just upgrade the minor exterior and interior stuff.
