Hi Folks. I'm back in the Lexus camp after several years driving Audis. Bought an RX 350 F Sport last month, and I'm really enjoying it. I love the ride quality, quiet cabin, and the amazing headlights. I'm still coming up to speed on all the tech.

No mods planned this time around, but I did some debadging today to celebrate the license plates arriving in the mail.






I'd hoped to do a full detail and apply a ceramic coating, but the day was low on temps and short on sunlight. Instead I did a rinseless wash and applied a spray sealant, which will protect the finish until a warmer day.

My wife's been a loyalist. In March of 2019, she traded in her '07 ES350 on a 2019 model. Riding in and occasionally driving her car really put Lexus on my radar for my purchase. Here's a shot of her car...

Just picked this baby up today. Our 6th Lexus. An ES, GS, GX, NX and 2 RX.. love the 20 inch wheels and the body style traded in a 2010 RX...it’s a 2017 with 14K miles.. Ok, besides the hands free lift gate, what else is cool that I need to know? We have a 2018 NX so I’m familiar with most options

Just picked this up on Saturday. Certified 2019 Atomic Silver/Black F Sport with 30K miles. Really digging this car. Already ordered some WeatherTech floor liners and cargo mat.

Oh, and I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it has the same "hidden" remote start feature that my Tacoma has

There are pics of your vehicle in the "Pics of your RX" thread. Perhaps the mod moved them there.

Purchases a CPO 18 450h w 24k miles. Dealer had it for a week. BLK/BLK Luxury HUD , Blind spot, cold weather package, AFS and more. Only thing missing is Triple Beam, that I'm not sure were available in 18. Will be my wife's DD replacing her MDX that son #3 has now. Pick it up Friday, dealer is ~125 miles away. I went yesterday and made the deal. I'm a bit old school, want to see and drive before deciding. Lot's of east coast off leases near me and few are CPO and even fewer are 450's. Funny thing is, Local Infiniti dealer close to me has over 100 used Lexus's probably 30 RX's. When factoring in CPO and additional reconditioning costs, buying from Lexus CPO was less expensive, especially considering the extended warranty..

I was surprised at how quick it feels off the line, especially compared to my 12 GX, probably similar to the 08 ES.

More details and pics this weekend.

hi - so i owned a 2010 rx350 several yrs ago, but traded it in. i'm happy to report that i just brought home the following TODAY - YAY:

1. 2017 RX350
2. 12.3 Navigation w/mark levinson (the audio in my previous 2013 benz ml350 was much better)
3. Gray w/black interior
4. fully loaded

so far i am loving "her". 2013 benz ml350 bluetec, but began to have so many costly issues. to it's defense, i do feel as though my benz had a much quieter cabin, smoother ride, and better sound system. on this rx350, i'm trying to figure out why the "perimeter approach" lights don't come on when i am approaching.... i realize the enform suite is going to be useless come 10/2022, but the other perks of the car outweighed the other, so i pulled the trigger.

she's a beauty!
