No, I don't play soccer!
Congrats Alpy on your RX and welcome to CL.
You have lots of nice options on your 450h like the retractable side mirrors and LEDs. I like your color combination too. That would have been my second choice. To clarify, the integrated turn signal lamps are the signal markers in the side view mirror cover that activate when you turn on your blinker. The puddle lamps are underneath the side mirror. They turn on on when you approach the RX with the key fob or open the door. I believe they are standard in all 3rd gen RXs.

Thanks Kiltz and thanks for the explanation, it is clear and yes, it is standard for Europe too.
Color is not so "sad" white was my preferred color but impossible to find in a limited period of time with the options I wanted but finally that color is quite "discrete" and under the sunny days, it is more brown than "grey".
Basically I was looking for a bicolor for the interior (with some wood) so exactly what I've got.
It is a real good car for me, comfort, silence, amazing sound system ML premium surround, fuel consumption very low (my overall consumption close to constructor commercial figures), image, not show off compared to german SUV cars, technology....even if there some ergonomics defaults but not so negative.

It comes with all the regular stuff plus:
