look what you all have gone and done... Translated from Japanese

　Ni-kyo Iwao president of Toyota Motor Kyushu (Fukuoka Wakaichi Miya) 22 days, depending on the coverage, such as Nihon Keizai Shimbun, to increase production from this year next year in January new car began full-scale production the "Lexus NX" in the summer of policy me revealed. Now I raise the monthly 8,000 units scale of production to 10,000 units a little. And as "It's 310 000 units a little more than likely" is also about 2014 production volume, showed the prospect of a possible topper from 309,853 units in 2001.

　Toyota Kyushu is responsible for NX production of the entire Toyota Group on one hand, initially I had planned the annual production 80,000 scale. Since orders strong at home and abroad, I increase loading on the annual production of 100,000 units more than scale.

Amazing.

What will be even more interesting is seeing what sales will be like years down the road and how they will be able to maintain it, along with that compared to the competition.

Great news to hear. More volume probably means easier access to parts and better service for the vehicle.

Production might have increased but according to my salesman you still can't order an NX to your specs.

LOL, that sucks. Not sure why this is such a problem for them. Perhaps if they do custom orders at this point it would really slow down production.

On Lexus's web site there's multiple NX F Sports available in my surrounding states. IMO more would have already been sold if future owners could have ordered to their specs.

If it was late summer, I would be checking out the new MB GLE that's coming out in August that will be produced in Alabama. It will definitely be more $$$$ than the NX especially the AMG version. I think it looks a lot better than the GLA.
