And, that kit will raise the standover by more than 2 inches...closer to 3. I am kinda lusting for it though!!!
I like that 2.5 in lift that kit includes. You can see the spacers on that picture

They are making a smaller Africa twin I believe...600cc or so which would be off road equipped wonder how much for that ...Probably 13k or so

One major thing you forgot that's not included...tires


I'm thinking the new rx4 may be a little more upright and more relaxed leg angle..who knows. Not sure if I could just order a 6k item without seeing it in person, that might call for a pickup ride to LA.
