New to the forum. Just picked up our 2017 (eminent white pearl) to replace a 2015 (deep sea mica). We loved our 2015...and it was undoubtedly more refined with the parchment interior. However, we are planning on moving back down to a one car household, so durability is key with a dog and a marathon runner! I was petrified of dirt, scuffs and damage every time we got into our beautiful car!
Here are the key specs:
Eminent white pearl exterior
Stratus gray leather
20-inch wheels
12.3-inch nav with ML
Espresso walnut
Heated steering wheel
Ventilated seats
Premium package
Panoramic roof
Touchless liftgate
Cold weather package
Love all of the amazing features thus far. Will post pics once we get a little bit of sun here in perpetual gray Seattle!

After 15 months and 40K miles with his 2016 RX350 in Eminent white/Noble brown (one of the first on this thread), my dad started to have buyer's remorse due to missing features like LSS+. He decided to sell it. Helped him upgrade to a 2017 RX350 with almost every feature...now he's happy.

Hey all just wanted to introduce myself even though the new RX is my wifes. We picked up a 2017 Saturday at Lexus of Silver Spring here in MD and got a pretty nice deal after reading up here and firing off about 6 internet pricing requests. Originally she wanted the Eminent white/Parchment with 20s. MSRP was about $54k. When we got to the dealer she saw a Luxury package RX in Eminent White/Noble Brown. She was on the fence with the interior but was in love with the extra goodies, specifically the pano roof, triple LEDs, and the running boards that this one had(she is vertically challenged lol). After driving it a bit she started to really dig the darker interior so I did some renegotiating and we ended up with that one.
We have been BMW people and I still am(not changing lol) but she really wanted something more comfortable than her 428 gran coupe and the X4 was our best option with BMW but she didnt love it. Already had an X3 and the X5 leases suck now so that was out of the question. Also looked at the Land Rover Discovery Sport, Jaguar F-Pace, and Audi Q5. All were nice but I was really skeptical about the reliability of the LR and Jag. Audi was nice but kind of boring to look at. The Lexus offers some really dynamic styling(yes not everyone loves it) and an interior that cant be beat from a lux standpoint. The driving dynamics will never match a BMW nor are they really trying which in her case was a good thing wanting more comfort. I enjoy the comfort as well after getting out of my M4 and I just throw it in Sport mode to make the throttle react faster and upshifts wait just a bit longer. She is very happy and I can see this not being her last RX unless something really wonky happens.
So that was a pretty long intro but thanks for reading and I look forward to reading more and posting here and there.

2017 RX350 FSport purchased this past weekend
This weekend we replaced 2010 RX with 2017 RX350 FSport, Nightfall Mica, triple LED, Mark Levinson, Panoramic. MSRP $60,459. Out the door $59k. Good discount, not great, but best we could do with model/color we wanted.
Notice 2016 NX 200t FSport in background.
Don't recommend this color unless you are prepared to manage it!
Today sealed the paint with Liquid Glass.
NX is still more fun to drive, but RX is for when we need space and luxury.
Today drove the RX with Sport PLUS. Really impressive how it tightens the steering.
I still have days worth of reading here about the RX, but discovered today the weird front windshield wipers. Need to place them in service position to clean wind shield? too strange.

Greeting all!
New member to the RX 4th Gen Club. Just bought an L Cert 2016 RX350. Great deal for a well equipped car, as it was a loaner vehicle for my local Lexus dealer. I might have even driven it once when we had the SC430 in for service. That's what got the wife interested in the RX350 in the first place. She wanted a winter SUV with more features than our 2013 RAV4 XLE. Major upgrade for her but she is very happy. Think it was the heated / cooled seats and heated steering wheel that sold her. Dealer stock photo below :

1st Post
1st Post here. Just got a '17 RX450h last Thursday. This is my wife's car, but I will probably do most of the driving. All I have read is the small owners manual. Haven't even started on the large on yet.
Eminent White with the Grey interior. Has all the safety stuff, Luxury Pkg, Nav with 12.3 screen, and more.
Can't believe how complicated this car is. I can't even set the pre-sets for the radio. I'll get there.
