Hybrid TechnologyUnique topics related to the 2004 -2009 RX400H model hybrid drivetrain and other features/options found only on the RX400H. Please use the main forum for discussion about shared components with other second generation RX models.
I went though the same thing. There isn't much difference from my research. The emblems have blue trim, the head/tail lights have a blue "hue" to them. The side sill panels have a blue lighted "Lexus" logo. But AFAIK, mechanics and options are about indentical.
But I actually really like the lighted blue lexus logos when I open the doors. haha.
The only other difference is depending on when it's made, you'll have about 1 year more warranty left.
If price is a concern, finding a low miler 2007 would save you about 1-3 grand over the same low miler 2008.
Didn't 08 add the aux port too? As stated mostly cosmetic....blue headlights, chrome handles. 07+ got updated NAV, 06 has the older gen 4 NAV...
You mean an USB port to hook iPods/MP3 players? Don't I wish. I noted on the dash that that the 08 is mp3 capable. But that only means it can play mp3 formatted CDs.
When we sat in a new 2010 RX350/450h, it had an USB port in the console area.
