Default Just bought the wife her first Lexus!

Just bought the wife her first 2010 Lexus RX 350. She was jealous of my GS 350 over the years so I ponied up and got her one. Traded in the 2007 Trailblazer SS which will be missed, but a nice transition.

2010 Lexus RX 350 - CPO
White
20k miles
Backup Camera (in rearview mirror)
Heated/Cooled Seats
Paid: $33,250

How did I do? I shopped it around pretty hard, and thought I got a pretty good deal.

Good job, you haven't even realized what a good transition it was on all fronts yet :.

Congrats on your new RX. I had/have a loaded Envoy and although the RX is nice, I find I stull use the Envoy to do stuff until I sell it in the spring. It was a very very good vehicle for me. It cost nothing really in repairs (250,000km) and was great in snow and trailoring sleds and quads.

That being said I really do enjoy my 450H and would have trouble going back to the Envoy because of the luxury, ride and waaaay better gas milage my Lexus offers.

The price was a pretty good deal. When I was shopping around a 2010 non CPO was going for around that with the same options. The CPO adds another $2500 to the price tag according to my dealer

@ Joemama, so did you get a 2012 or a 2010 CPO RX 350?
if that was a 2010, then i think you got a nice deal.
do you have an 18 or a 19 inch rim with the RX?

My error, yes it's a 2010 CPO. It was on the lot for 40+ days so they dropped there pants a bit.
