New Owner
Long time Lexus owner with a new 2015 RX. As much as we enjoyed our 2004 330, this one is pretty darn special.
We contemplated the 4th Gen., but frankly, the numbers didn't work for us.
It's so refined and the tech works flawlessly. Quite an upgrade over the 330. We've had it a month and I'm most impressed. Had to travel Christmas day in a torrential rainstorm and she was solid.
Love everything about it ... and we'll own the new tech soon enough.
Now my old GS needs a new home...

You made a great choice. We bought a 2015 RX450h back in June and love it. We will be keeping this a very long time. First because we would never own anything other than a Lexus and second not crazy about the 2016. Now before people jump on me, personal preferences are not wrong they are just different. Don't like the black plastic around each wheel well, the nav screen that looks like an afterthought that is glued on top of the dash, the two tone interiors and the front.

Nice Find!
I'm sure you will love it. I loved my 2010 RX450h, and replaced it with an identical 2015 RX450h in August of 2015. Very little changed over the 6 years, so a 2010 is an excellent purchase, especially "Certified". Matador Red is a nice color, my spouses GS350 is that color. We just love our Lexus's.

finally traded in my 2004 for this 2013
Starfire white with grey interior
comfort and premium
Navi & BSM
chrome rims =(
Dealer is putting tint later this week.
Purchased 84m/75k extend warranty for cheap... so this SUV should be good to go for a long while.
what's in luxury? It bundles in to premium no?

Hi to all,
Just got a 2014 Rx through CARMAX (worked well).
It has only 18,790 miles, Nav, Claret Mica color, comfort and
premium packages.
I'm just now learning all the neat stuff I've bought. I had a great
little Kia Sorento 2008 that never let me down but 7 years was
enough.
Finally I have the newest and best car in the family -- as I always
got the old one to use in my sales job!!
I'm sure I'll have a great time in the forums learning some good stuff!
I'll post a pic or two soon.

forever and ever - is it the same with all lexus owners?
Hi Community who made a right decision!
i joined your ranks few years back when purchased used RX 350, 2008 light blue, and since only L in my heart. Last black Friday i became an owner of 3RX, 2015, and still my heart gets seized whenever i'm entering garage, exiting grocery store, or waiting it from valet. it's starglazer black on black, comfort/ premium with Nav.
Closer to Spring was thinking of tuning it with some accessories, so would be happy to be directed to relevant thread to get some ideas.
but other than that, very glad to join CL, and hope to help/contribute as much as newbie can.
respectfully yours,
Oljas!

If this vehicle was purchased as CPO, definitely get the dealership to replace it.
