Default 99-03 more sturdy?

Is it me,or are the 99-03 RX`s a more stout/built better vehicle? I like the 04`s and up,but their is something that looks almost cheap about the newer ones. I remember when i had my 1984 Chrysler Laser turbo(loved that car) and when the 86`s came out,they looked okay,but lots,and lots of problems.Seem`s like sometimes,(not alway`s,)the latter models are not necessarly the better models.

I wondered that too... We have driven the RX330 as loaner cars when my transmission broke, Lots of new bells and whistles, visability worse, still sounded solid when you close the doors.... I wonder what the weight difference is. The 330 appears longer and diffinetly a little more streamlined. My wife perferred the RX300 over the 330......

I have to agree...I have a 2001 and I think it is more "solid" then the 350's
