I see so many new RXs on the road everyday... I just came home and someone three houses down just bought one in the same color... oh well

 

yea, i just got back from a trip down to philly in the RX and just about every street had at least 5, no exagerating either. I saw at least 5 Rx's in one parking lot (3 - 330's and 2 - 300, one of them was ours). There are a lot of them for a good reason though.

 

Go around the Queens\Long Island area you are bound to see about 15 a day if not more they are all over Long Island. The same also goes for the Lexus GX it's a very common site too.

 

I got my RX 330 right after they came out in the beginning of April 2003. I must admit it was kind of nice at that time to see that there were so very few on the road. Everywhere I drove the RX got looks. Now when I drive it seems like they are everywhere and I'm just one of the gang. Oh well.....it was nice while it lasted!

 

Obviously they need to raise the price

 

that is the most rediculous thing to say. One of the main reasons why I bought the RX330 is because it was rated a Consumer's Report Best Buy. I do not feel like I am overpaying for the car (unlike my crappy 2002 Mercedes that breaks all the time).

Here in Saint Louis, MO there are not as many RX330. It is kind of nice because I am the only one driving it on the road. Everyone here drives Chevys and Fords.

 

Lighten up, it was meant as a joke. But, since you bring it up…

The RX is a great buy. When I set out to buy a car, I said I was not going to buy an RX because there were so many of them around. However when I started to compare the competition, logic kept bringing me back to the RX. I couldn’t find another car like the RX that delivered so much for the price and give me great dependability ratings to boot. I can guess that’s why we see so damn many of them on the road, we’re not the only ones who have come to this conclusion.

Now, we already own one so it’s OK to say this, but with the demand for the RX so high, it just stands to reason that it can withstand a price increase and not have it adversely affect their sales. It can only help our resale value, right? Does anyone know if they increased the base price on the 05’s? I guess we will have to wait and see.

 

I started noticing a lot of RX's on the road after I got my 3yr old RX300 few months, now that is a good thing for me because as soon as I finish paying for my RX.. I am changing for used RX330 .. there will be many to choose from. As far as price is concerned, I think it just about right (used or new), anything more then I would be looking at other nice looking SUVs on the market for instance FX35/45, MDX, X3/5.
My 2cents worth.

 

I bought a 2001 Black on Black RX300 Silversport and have'nt seen another one like it. I have seen a few Coach editions like it.

You can always customize you RX to be different.

 

Just like someone mentioned, do you know how many RX's are on the road everyday?
It's like menholes on the street, or pass a people who wears a eyeglasses, or more than mailboxes every corner of the street. IN NYC I'M TALKING ABOUT. And I am happen to be one of them

 

We have both an RX300 and an RX8. So in our household, we have lots of RX's!

 

I heard from a dealer that the new msrp is 40, 075 that's another $360 from the 04's to the 05's I wonder what they are adding anybody know?

 

I have to laugh, you are so opposite of what I have to deal with.

Here in Mexico City, I have only seen 4 RXs, not including my own.

 

Took a long trip through Colorado, Wyoming and the PNW in the spring of 2000 with my new RX. While a lot of people ignored me, most places I got more stares than a treeful of owls!

 

Lots of RX in the Rocky Mtn Front Range. (from Cheyenne to Colorado Springs.)

If you want attention, drive through Southwestern Kansas. Everybody drives 20-year-old Ford or Chevy there. I always get a mob of people surrounding my RX300 every time I stop. Not a hostile crowd, they were just curious.

And the auto-leveling HID really freak them out.
