I agree with that.

I think that's why we went with the RX and tried to compromise a bit by selecting the Performance Package with the polished wheels, adjustable suspension, less interior wood (leather steering wheel and shifter ****), then we tinted the front windows, etc....

Small changes, but it made it a bit "sportier" than the average RX that you see a million of, yet it retains the luxury that I don't think you can add to the FX so easily.

While test driving the FX, I got some "bump steers" on poorly maintained highway off ramp. It felt like the FX wanted to get into the pasture next to the ramp. The suspension was too stiff for my taste. While the RX doesn't pull the highest "g" on the test track, but its soft suspension helps the tires grip the road better in the real world IMHO.
