Default RX330 Production West Coast 03.03

Hello Everyone, here is the west coast production for the first go around on the '04 RX330. Sorry about the alignment. Never could figure out how to get it right...........I decided it was more important to get the information out fast and fix it later....Remember this is March's production for the west coast ONLY. It is in no way similar to east coast. If you are on a waiting list and do not want to wait, Longo has lots of cars available.

VN=Navigation/Mark Levinson Package
FT="18 wheels
HH=Heated Seats
PT=Premium Plus Package
VQ=Large Sunroof (or BAM! Big A** Moonroof)
TO=Tow Package
EY= Rear Entertainment System
NV=Navigation w/ Rear Camera
VP=Performance Package


(4x2) Total build 765 units

FT HH VN.............................FT PT.......FT VQ

This is great info!!!! You really contribute alot to this forum.

Is there a similar table for 4x4s, and can you post it?

Also, I notice there were no VP packages. Perhaps they are all 4x4s.

If you want to make a formatted text table:

1. Edit your table in a text program like Notepad which uses a fixed width font.
That's a font in which each character has the same width so you can line things up.

2. Copy that table and paste it in your message/reply.

3. Add CODE tags around the text you want to line up.
See vB Code specifically the Code and PHP Tags section
Don't forget to close the CODE tag.

Here's your table formatted correctly (If I read it right)

Code:
VN = Navigation/Mark Levinson Package
FT = 18" wheels
HH = Heated Seats
PT = Premium Plus Package
VQ = Large Sunroof (or BAM! Big A** Moonroof)
TO = Tow Package
EY = Rear Entertainment System
NV = Navigation w/ Rear Camera
VP = Performance Package


(4x2) Total build 765 units

                      FT HH VN     FT PT     FT VQ
Crystal White/ivo        29         53         3
Crystal White/gra         8         14         1
Silver/gray              27         47         3 
Silver/blk               24         42         3
Flint/gray               32         57         3
Flint/gray               13         23         2
Black Onyx/ivo            8         14         1
Black/gray               13         23         1
Black/blk                11         19         1
Savannah                 43         75         4
Bamboo/ivo               12         23         2
Bamboo/gra               10         19         2
Black Forrest/blk         8         14         1
Breakwater/gray          16         28         2
Neptune/ivo              11         19         1
What about the 4x4 or AWD models?
And is everything getting 18" wheels?

Thank you for the advice. I started the AWD, but got busy with a guest....I will finish up and post it tomorrow. The RX330 is getting unbelievable response. All of the west coast cars are coming with "18 wheels....actually I'm glad because it looks better on the car. More aggressive.

Hello Everyone, sorry this is taking so long, but it was craaazy here over the weekend. It was like Christmas at the shopping mall what with all the customers we had coming to buy the new RX330 (first weekend of the new car so everbody came out). Anyways, here is the AWD production, which is considerably less than the 2WD, this being California and all.....I corrected the Flint/gry and Flint/blk thing from earlier post, thanks for catching that by the way. Oh, and try as I might, I can't figure out the notepad yet so I'll save it for future posts....



Total build=486

See the notepad screenshot attached. What you do is make things line up in notepad. Notice that the font is a fixed width so that each character is the same width. Use spaces to line things up.

Then copy and paste into the message and put CODE tags around it. It's not going to line up in your Reply window, but it will in the final message. Again, see the attached gif. Also notice the CODE tags put around the table. What you'll get is below:
Code:
VN = Navigation/Mark Levinson Package
FT = 18" wheels
HH = Heated Seats
PT = Premium Plus Package
VQ = Large Sunroof (or BAM! Big A** Moonroof)
TO = Tow Package
EY = Rear Entertainment System
NV = Navigation w/ Rear Camera
VP = Performance Package

Total build = 486

Default hey!

Okay so I'm not the most computer savy person in the world. But did you have to lock out my thread? I have other good skills, I swear! I'm a good salesperson with great customer skills. I promise I'll get someone here at work to help me figure out the finer points.....

Do you have any info on whether or not Lexus is making any without a sunroof? Looks like these all have one.

I'm guessing not. I fit OK in the 330 with a sunroof (my head rubs against the top), but I would fit even better without one.

thanks for the information.

So far I've noticed:

1. Every RX is getting 18" wheels in the West Coast.

2. Do the AWD really not sell that well in the West?
I figure if you're going to get a vehicle in the SUV configuration
and you're spending lots for a Lexus, you might as well
get AWD. What about all those that "want" to go skiing etc?

3. There are no ultra-loaded models. Ones with Performance,
Navigation, Mark Levinson, and Rear Seat Entertainment System.
If Lexus is trying to make a buck, I'm sure that there will be a few
takers for that configuration. Especially in LA.

XSFO - Check some of the other threads re:#3. No one gets a "Fully Loaded" - Maybe if you special order (but that's a huge maybe). Some regions get Perf/Nav but not Mark's system...

BigCarGuy: Please check with your local Lexus dealer to see if you can get a car without a moonroof. Most likely you can since you are on the east coast. All west coast cars have them.

XSFO: 2WD is by far more popular here in southern California. We get about a 70/30 split on them at our dealership. And unless there is a major rain pour, we ski on manmade snow about 2 hours drive from here. I have a few clients that have cabins and can afford the luxury of going up to the mountains several times a year, but for the rest of us "average" joe's........And unfortunately, the Mark Levinson cannot be combined with the Performance Package. It has nothing to do with price. It's a "conflict", which in English means, it won't all fit! And I have yet to see a Navigation/Performance combo.....

Longo Lexus,

If this is the build for March, then is there another build coming for April (can you post it)? If there is another build in April, will it have the same configurations? My main question is how long before some new color combinations become available? I would really like to get the Breakwater Blue car with the Ivory interior! How long do you think I will have to wait?

The Lexus dealers around here say even if I special order a car, I can't pick a color combination that is different from the production list because Lexus won't build it.

Thanks

Longo Lexus,

I also have another question. In your table you have the Black Forest Green color with black interior only. When I try to build this car on the Lexus websight it says it is only available in ivory or gray. Black is not available. Also, the brochere lists ivory or gray as the only color choices. Which is correct? Any chance of getting a Black Forest Green car with the ivory interior? Most dark green cars come with an ivory interior, I would have thought this to be a common color choice for the RX330.

Thanks again
