Talked to a local dealer about 2018s and she said Lexus isn't making FWD F-Sports anymore. If not sure if he was trying to push to get me to buy a 2017 now or if this is really true? If so, seems like the FWD F-Sports only went into production for 2017 and they're already getting rid of. Wonder if this is due to sales or requests in the market.

Please let us know once you make your RX order this month. Dealers down here are giving conflicting info when order books are ready.

The dealers will have their order books August 2017 for delivery in October.

updates to vehicle software/firmware?
Hello to Lexus Techies,
The 2017 RX brochure Standard Safety reads "Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, ... Lane Departure Alert, ... Lane Keep Assist"
I asked the Lexus dealer if there will be any changes between the 2017 RX and the 2018 model. The email reply included: "The answer is that there will be no changes. The 2018 model will be exactly alike."
But the Standard Safety features must involve a lot of software or firmware. Can it really be true that NO software improvements have been made in the last year?
And if there have been improvements how can we find out what they are?

That's because your dealer is unaware of the changes. Post to follow...soon

I recently had a nail in my RX350. I had to replace only one tire but with the same brand and model of the original tires.

I just talked to someone in a Dealer about 2018 RX.
I was told that 2018 RX (base Fsport hybrid) will be in dealers mid December and they do not expect any major changes.
They expect to get new 7 passenger RXL in January 18, 2018.
This is in Canada, I am not sure about US but it should be around same time frame.
