Or, is it just me?
yes... and I am still waiting for flip to spill the beans :-)

...which is weird because an oled screen should be top notch. i guess its so that the viewing angle has been increased...and we can get true black color of course in our all white based graphic menus

i doubt display will be white at dark... quite possibly it will have different graphics for night or else it will blind you... who really knows, it might have different graphics on production vehicle, and they might have made it white just to show how cool OLED is...

So the only new colour is Cerulean Blue Metallic and Parchment (I don't think Toyota/Lexus has offered Parchment before, have they?)

I saw the new 350 at the show earlier. I'm so dissappointed. In person, it looks so cheap esp. the back. Before going there, I thought I was gonna replace my wife's 08. I brought my camera but didn't even bother to take a picture. Now I need to look for something else. Any suggestion?

You didn't like the RX350?

Maybe you should go with the RX450h??

i think he didnt like exterior... both look very similar...

Reason I didnt buy Rx400h last year (although it would have made a lot of sense), was that it wasnt expensive looking... this new one looks a lot more expensive inside out, but thats in the pics of course.

FLIP, we need you to split the beans dude...

Yes, we may consider the hybrid. I like the front very much and the interior is amazing. Hopefully, those are enough to "forgive" the back. RX350 is the only vehicle that we've loved from day 1. We've tried pretty much all similar vehicles and decided RX was the best overall. If not RX, I don't know what to get for her!

Originally, I didn't like the looks of the new RX. But after returning from the SF Auto Show, I must say that it was pretty good, and what I could see of the interior was promising. The front is a lot better in real life.
