Default Rx 330

I would love to get a RX330 for a loaner car.

I like the RX330 as my loaner. Its definately a sporty little SUV and I like the way they drive. I never knew how cool those vehicles were until I got one as a loaner.

My dad got an IS300 as a loaner once, but only once, and I haven't seen one with loaner plates at the dealership since.

I don't honestly see a car with a push-button start being a loaner vehicle. I'm actually thinking that they'll drop to Camry's eventually since the keys aren't half as expensive as a Lexus smart key would be to replace.

No WAY will they hand out $70,000 vehicles for loaner cars that are going to get their asses kicked.

My list of loaners:

ES 300, 330, RX330, Prius, Camry, Corolla.
The RX330 was my fav and I had that car about 11 days, almost didn't want to give it back.

I'd welcome an IS loaner. After driving one at the last Taste event, that is a car I wouldn't mind for around town stuffs. Except Costco shopping trips.
