We have the all weather Lexus NX mats and I don't like them, they are too small to be effective in my opinion for places with bad weather. They look good and are made well, but as I said just to small in my opinion.

So for those who have an iPhone 6+ and are getting the optional Qi charger for your phone as part of their package...you'll be happy (not really) to know that it does not fit in the quick charging tray...its about 3/4 inch to long for the tray.
the regular iPhone 6 on the other hand will fit no problem .... but not the 6+
I believe the Samsung Note 4 will not fit either as it is about the same size in length as the iPhone 6+...

I'm not quite following your comment about the seatbelts. Are you talking about the rear center seatbelt that is hanging from the top? If so, how do you you "hide it"?

First you take the physical key out of the fob - it will fit into a little slot onto the side of the plastic where the belt attaches on the seat. It will pop right out of the seat and you can retract the whole thing and hide it in the ceiling. It will secure up in the roof.
Hope that helps!

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control DRCC differences
Ok, so discovery, based on the manual. There are two types of DRCC.
1. DRCC with all-speed control
2. DRCC
US must have 1 while Canada must have 2 as per this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/nx-...ork-in-nx.html

Not sure if this was already mentioned before but I was sad to discover that the Remote Start for the NX shuts off the engine when you open the door. I was hoping it would leave the engine running so you didn't have to restart again.
Also I noticed that the back of the F sport steering wheel behind the buttons at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock seems a bit hollow. Like they wrapped the leather over a hollow space back there. Kinda weird feeling when you grip at those positions.

This might not be much of a "discovery" per se, but just picked up 6 litres of 0w-20 Toyota synthetic along with a filter from the Toyota dealership for my NX and it cost me under $50 CDN!!!!!! 
.... I can't remember the last time I bought synthetic oil alone for $50... I wonder if they made a mistake!

Lexus Test Driver
I don't buy the "prevent" car for being stolen explanation. I do a lot of travel for work and have driven many premium rental cars. In those brands, when remote started, they leave the car on when you open the door. You have to press the Start Ignition button with key FOB present to activate the rest of the vehicle. Personally I just think Lexus just cut corners on this one.
