Default Anyone got their NX350 from the Cambridge Plant?

The Canadian Cambridge plant started earlier this month rolling out the new NX350 and Nx350h to the North American market! I wonder if anyone got there already. What do you guys think about it? Any problems or issues so far?

My dealer was allocated my NXh on 3-18-22. It has a 2T2 (Canadian) VIN. Still no ETA on it. Hope other Canadian NX's start rolling in soon!

Thank you for the video. Differences are minor as you said. The car was made in March which I believe must be one of their earliest ones to make since they started actual production around the same time, maybe this is why there are these minor differences. I hope the differences if there will be any in the future, will be just exterior ones. If it’s only these minor differences on the exterior, I would take these differences over a weld issue or any issue that can affect the safety of the car.

Agreed. I found a few on the lot where the headlight washer cut was smooth and the liftback is right. Couldn't open the liftback to see the hinges or the welds, but they are improving. The video was NOT to say the Cambridge made is not good cars.

I picked up my Cambridge assembled NX350H last week. I've not noticed any issues. No rattles or odd noises. Everything has been great thus far.

I got a Japan built 350h and stuck with two recalls already. I actually prefer the Cambridge build models as my previous RX built there was bullet proof. Zero recalls and issues in the 8 years driven. There has to be something said for all those awards that plant has won.

Wow, that was an early Cambridge production unit. The Lexus PR for Cambridge announcing the NX line was in early April.

I guess one could say about its alignment/paint, it is no worst than a lot of Tesla's today after making them for a decade 10 years vs Lexus for a few weeks at best. LOL

Mine is a little ahead (supposedly) of this new supply chain issue and is supposed to be on the truck being delivered to the dealer either after hours last night or today. Although it's mid-day and we haven't heard anything yet.
