The Crowd Favorite… BUILT 2022 Lexus GX 460 in NORI GREEN PEARL

[@Odat]

I have a 2022 GX and man do I love this thing. Feels like a tank. You sit pretty high up and you have great visibility!. V8 as well as full time 4wd and you have a very capable combo. Just for reference, before this I owned a bunch of Lexuses, 2018 Tundra off-road, a 2007 FJ cruiser and many other Toyota cars. I’ve had a 21 GX and now a 22 and still enjoy driving it. There is nothing like it out there and I really like that you don’t see too many out there.

[@UntamedMotors]

They certainly are special 👌

[@danervin2530]

@@UntamedMotors I’ve worked for ‘them’ for 13 years. I’ve wanted one for 12 of those years, since they launched. The refresh grille, graphite wheels, and Atomic silver color way addition made it tempting. 2022 with the new display and CarPlay finally did it for me. Bought one a few months ago, and I honestly think the 2022-2023 model GX will be- not only the most coveted- but most valuable for a long time to come. I went premium (no air sus), atomic silver, and rioja red interior. A true vehicle for the people. The Nori Green’s are beautiful. Buy it.

[@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD]

Honest opinion: you should buy one. They are perfect except for the poor mpgs and the plastic body kit that you're gonna cut off anyway

[@Tactidad]

I'm also a lucky owner of a 22 Nori Green GX, a very refined off-road SUV. I'm glad to see this video, as this is a testimony of the potential for this platform. Great video!

[@UntamedMotors]

My pleasure man! Thanks for watching. Congrats on your 22! Great pick.

[@jcpoiuy]

Thanks for taking the time to show us this vehicle. Just an awesome build!

[@UntamedMotors]

I have a 2016 and I’ve been thinking of this exact build, color, and accessories. Thank you very much because I don’t need to imagine it anymore😁😁😁

[@UntamedMotors]

My pleasure man! Happy to help! =]

[@ETrekker-1775]

I had a 2015 and built it up. Loved it. I am picking up my '23 in Nori Green this week!

[@muddyram]

I’m supposed to pick mine up tomorrow with the same Nori green and the black line edition. Can’t wait. Never seen another one in person anywhere

[@classicrocker81]

Never was a fan of this color until they started using it on the GX. This just works so well with the lines of the truck. Love what Kurt and the guys at Cruiser Outfitters did with this build! Those F Sport wheels are sweet!

[@UntamedMotors]

Agreed! They crushed this build. $30K isn't a light tag though =/ (just parts)

[@classicrocker81]

@@UntamedMotors yup that sounds about right. The LX570 they did was also pretty sweet! Its only money 😂

[@TropicalMint808]

yeah I wanted this color for our 22 blackline, but it's the wife's car and she just couldn't have green. small regrets here.

[@tomcrook6796]

We own a 2011 GX460, currently at 180k miles and still going strong. Very minor issues thru our ownership, it's just rock solid. Drove a new one the other day, and it's honestly hard to tell the difference, other than updated technology and probably suspension. No squeaks or rattles, everything works. Perfect vehicle for Colorado, powers thru the mountains with ease. My wife drives the wheels off of it, but the oil is as clean after 5k miles of driving as when it went in the motor. It's my first Toyota, but won't be my last. Amazing vehicle.

[@riazhaq3523]

I got a 2023 Lexus GX in nori green. I picked it up with 2kms on the clock. It’s so incredibly nice I can’t bring myself to off road it yet (even though that’s why I partly got it). Love the build in this vid especially the front bumper upgrade. I’d probably not lift it. The stock shocks are probably better than any aftermarket ones.

[@UntamedMotors]

That’s awesome man, congrats! You bought one sweet vehicle. Bulletproof reliability.

[@daniellef1]

Got my 22 Atomic Silver being outfitted by Roam Overland Outfitters in Lutz, FL. So far all CBI. Love this rig!

[@UntamedMotors]

Heck yeah! That’s awesome, congrats!

[@righthaymaker]

I have a Nori Green beast and love it! I am apprehensive to lift due to the ride quality that comes stock but the additional ground clearance would be a game changer. If you buy one….. keep it

[@UntamedMotors]

Nice! They're such amazing vehicles. Becoming relics too... Congrats on yours. This thing was like riding on a cloud.

[@chrischambless]

Get the Ironman4x4 foamcell pro front lift and leave the rear bags (if you have them). Do the fender washer cheat to level tHe rear. Ride quality is the same if not better.

[@73uw37]

Awesome video! Love this color! I am one of the lucky ones to get this color for 2023. This video will definitely give me some insight on what to do with mine thanks 🤙🤙

[@UntamedMotors]

Congrats on your 23 man! 🙌 You’re going to love it. Great color choice too!

[@freedomrevival1375]

Great review! I heard that the CBI skid does rub the KDSS when driving. Any similar issues with this built? Thanks!

[@UntamedMotors]

No issues in my experience driving it 👌

[@Pierre.P4]

This would be a great addition to the Untamed channel.

[@andyhunt007]

I have a 22 nori green gx and I love it. Gas mileage sucks around town but I knew that when I bought it.

[@UntamedMotors]

Hopefully it makes up for that in other aspects though! Great color choice.

[@andyhunt007]

@@UntamedMotors it definitely makes up for it. One thing I love on the car that doesn’t seem to be brought up is the double paned glass on the windows.

[@joedemarco6925]

Wasn’t on my radar but bought a blackline last year and was considering 4 runner TRD pro. Pro looks cooler but AWD, v8, better interior, and Chrome delete and no mark ups swayed me to the GX. With the markup on TRD prices are close.

[@TropicalMint808]

that bumper is awesome, so clean looking 👌

Ikr! It's integrated so nicely.

The thought is there but I’d also want to put a few bucks into it immediately to make it similar to this. Stock for stock I prefer the 4Runner TRD pro.

[@beyondhometown]

Which trim of gx 460 is this premium or luxury model.. I got an option to buy one of these wondering which will be better for off-road build at the same time on road smoothness with less body roll?

[@okievet]

These are top notch.. so damn nice.

[@daniellef1]

I noticed the rear hatch table install that was not mentioned. Do you know the manufacturer? Victory 4x4 has one, wondering if this is it?

[@UntamedMotors]

They said it was a total CBI build so I wonder if it’s them?

[@Car_Captures_Media]

Looks great! But I hate that they didn’t line up the rear plate straight😭

[@niyi1866]

I love it! I think this is equivalent to the Toyota Prado.

[@UntamedMotors]

Yep you’re right! 👌

[@ethanmathews182]

I have a ‘22 nori green that I’m mid way through modding. Came from a ‘19 TRD offroad 4runner. The GX is sooo much more refined than the 4runner. Also more power but my lord the fuel efficiency is awful and 91 octane to boot. I knew that going in so it’s not really an issue but it is hard not to notice.

[@rotorwind177]

Sweet rig! I’ve thought of a GX several times to replace the 4Runner. Better comfort and power. But I just prefer the looks of the Pro 4Runner

[@stevematti6548]

Loved my 13 -4.6 tunde

[@jpquindara]

Well done build! Always wanted to try OME BP-51s. Almost snagged this instead of a 4Runner but couldn’t justify the gas! The transmission is so buttery smooth. I’ve had the opportunity to drive the Prado diesel version in the Philippines but prefer the American v8 ⛽️ 💨

[@SimplyCarReviews]

Honestly gas difference owning both is negligible. I love my GX460.

[@huckleberrymulberry4764]

I recently left the Philippines and I noticed a number of Lexus vehicles during my time there including the GX. Is it also getting the Prado’s diesel powerplant? I’m here in Norway now and I see nothing of Lexus here, but the Land Cruiser Prado is a fairly common vehicle especially in more rural places here.

[@PLSeeK85]

Looking to get one of these and need some advice. The Nori Green Pearl Black Line Edition doesn’t seem to have the off road package as an option. Please someone tell me I’m wrong because this is by far my favorite color but I really want the MTS and the crawl control.

[@WFO.]

My inbound ‘23 4Runner TRD Pro has me thinking I should get the GX 460

[@willycorpuz9591]

You should 🤟

[@mujtaballa3105]

This color is so nice! Looks classic. Is it fun to drive tho?

[@kclefthanded427]

There is a sister version called Toyota Land Cruiser Prado with 4.0 V-6 , turbodiesel, even with a manual transmission. We need more green painted vehicles

[@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD]

if you peel back the plastic in these ut will be stamped toyota and Landcruiser in many places

[@DerfLrak]

Wish the 5th gen 4Runner came with the 4.6, that would make the vehicle even more perfect in my opinion! Oh well, can’t complain, I love my Pro anyways

[@UntamedMotors]

[@TheeAaron]

I’ve actually been thinking about buying one of these. For some unknown reason Lexus decided to change the interior to Grey this year :/ I’m also undecided if a Blackline Edition is the way to go or another model with the Off Road Pkg.

[@UntamedMotors]

Interesting, I didn’t know that. I love the black line package personally… think it looks so sleek. 👌

[@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD]

get one.. you won't be sorry ☺️

[@TheeAaron]

@@UntamedMotors Yes it does. Blackline this year has Boulder Grey interior instead of Black. Kind of an odd choice. Also I don’t believe the Off Road Pkg is available in the Blackline. Although I’m not sure how necessary crawl control, Multii Terrain Select, etc is at this point.

The A/T temp light won’t trigger until the fluid is already fried, destroying the clutches and torque converter (300 degrees F)
