Durability. The underpinnings are far superior on the LC. You decide if it's worth $30 k.
Here is the front suspension of the GX, look at strut thickness, axle thickness a-arm thickness and tie rod thickness

Same setup on the cruiser, everything is more massive

The other side I'm working on right now, another look

Also, seats in the GX, at least the 470 are an inferior quality to the LX. Like not even on the same planet. IPhone X vs iPhone 3gs level difference.

Suspension is superior to the GX too.

Everything on the LC was designed to be top tier. GX is just a gussied up Prado which is just a European tuned 4Runner.

Side by side they aren't close.

Now on the new 200 series, unless you are. Going way new, I felt the interior was inferior to my 03 LX470. Seriously, check out an LX570 too.
