2014 RX 450h AWD
- Nebula Gray Pearl
- Light Gray /Ebony Interior
- 12 Speaker Audio Package
- Heated and Ventilated Front Seats
- Navigation Package
- Premium Package with BSM
- Intuitive Parking Assist
- Towing Prep
- 19" wheels with wheel locks

A little bit about myself. Have owned a 1982 Toyota Cressida and 1987 Supra Turbo in the past. But my last car was a 2002 Camry with 49K (not a typo) miles on it that developed stripped threads in the block (TSB0015-11). Toyota refused any assistance with the repair so I bought this Hybrid SUV.

Dang, thank god I had a 32-year software engineering background before I retired, this thing is like a computer. Still trying to read the 3" of manuals. Pretty happy and excited so far.

Welcome to the forum Cheryl. I know you will find a lot of assistance here for the questions that turn up for new ownership. In reading your post the thought comes to mind that occasionally forum posters tend to exaggerate on occasion but in your comment of 3" of manuals, this is clearly understating the amount of reading material, LOL.

I'm sort of a Toyota fan myself starting with an 84 Camry, an 88 Camry, a 91 MR2 (which I still own), a 99 Camry Solara, a 04 RX330 and now a 14 RX350. MY RX350 is also Nebula Grey. I'm sure you will love it but there is a lot of electronics to get used to. Also Lexus dealerships normally all have a technology specialist there to help you with things.

Do drop by the Automotive Care & Detailing forum and see what others are doing to keep their rides clean and shiny. I'd especially advise anyone with lighter leather to apply a leather protectant to avoid dye transfer stains which can be permanent.

Again, a warm welcome to Club Lexus.

Default New 2014 RX 450h

Hey guys I just picked up my brand-new 2014 Lexus RX450h FWD and I am absolutely loving it. I can't believe how good my mileage is at 29.2 MPG for its first tank of gas. I originally wanted to buy a used RX but after looking at a lot of them that just didn't do it for me I decided to go new and I'm really glad that I did. The new one just feels better to drive than say a 2010 model. Nothing against 2010 models though. If there's one thing I just really don't like about this newer RX is that stupid fake motor noise. The older ones are so much better in that regard. Being an iPhone user I am really enjoying the new Siri Eyes Free feature. I really hate stop and go traffic on the freeway but owning an RX hybrid just made me smile at it knowing that I was getting just as good of gas mileage if not better than if there was no traffic at all. I'm glad to be a part of this group of RX hybrid owners.

Fake motor noise? RX450h doesnt have a fake motor noise. The noise is real my friend
