LM 300h
LM 350

Produced for Asian countries. Too bad none for U.S. Maybe someone can import one here...

How about the IS250c with a manual. From what I can find, only 90 of them were produced for the US over the 3 years the MT was offered.

Does 1 in 500 count? I think for newer models, it does. Not a fan of this gen's tail at all. Looks like a Kia. And do the mirrors not fold automatically too? I never get what's up with Lexus about auto folding mirrors. A 5+ year old RX does while a new GX doesn't.

Thats SUPER WHACK for a brand new 2022 to not have folding mirrors, especially this car. come on Lexus. the least they could do is offer it as an option. I love my mirrors, quickest way to check if the car is locked.

The GX does have power folding, just not auto folding. Why is beyond me.

I believe at some point, they offered on Limited model. Last time I checked, both have the same feature, manual power folding not auto folding. I too often look at the mirrors to confirm. I guess we can use our ears or eyes. Lol

it couldn't be that rare could it? my buddy had one of the first ones. driving it was pretty neat, with a hand brake (vs foot brake for auto cars). wish the 350 came with it as the 2.5 is just so slow!

we also had a sportcross, which i believe is rarer especially when fully optioned with nav and LSD.
