Welcome to the forum, like yourself I traded in an Acura (2017 MDX) for the RX350h. It was time to make a switch to a hybrid and Acura does not have one. MDX was a great ride but the gas was killing me. Love the RX and the fuel economy. My wife just traded in her 2015 RDX for a 2024 UX250h. Look forwarding to seeing images once you get your new ride. Cheers

Welcome to the forum. Hopefully your newer car should be trouble free and give you the quality of service you desire.

Got the 2024 RX 350 non-hybrid Luxury trim with Macademia/bamboo interior and Nori Green exterior. Looks stunning.
It has the triple beam headlights and ML audio
Wife is extremely happy with it!

Previous car was 2018 X3 M40i

Our preference was and still is red, but green was what was available and our second choice. It has really grown on us, though we still like the red better. Macadamia was our first choice and what we wound up with. No regrets.

Green was my first choice for its understated elegance, and I jumped on it when the time was right. My old Audi is Shiraj Red - so I have a thing for rare colors, I guess - and almost all dealer-available 450h+ seem to black, grey or white - as those are the most popular colors. I only found a blue one once at a dealer, and a red one once.

We were lucky enough to see red, blue, and green, as well as the more common colors, all at the same time. We definitely wanted something that would stand out more. The blue was just too dark for us, though certainly beautiful. Red wasn't available in the model we wanted

Hi everyone!

Finally was able to upgrade from a 2013 Honda Accord to a 2024 RX500h! So glad I found this community of other Lexus owners and all of the posts have been super helpful as this is my first ever Lexus.

Purchased the 24’ RX500h F-Sport Performance in Cloudburst Grey with Rioja Red interior. Came basically fully loaded. Definitely a huge upgrade in tech compared to my old car.

Had it for just over a month and I am absolutely in love with how it drives! Still getting used to all the new tech, but despite the learning curve has been very fun and easy to drive. ML speakers sound amazing. Gas is pricer than my old car but I have been averaging 28mpg with mixed use (I drive mostly late at night so hardly ever any traffic and all lights are green haha!)

Got XPEL ultimate plus PPF applied to the full front and tinted all the windows.

Also added mudguards myself since it didn’t come with them already installed.

Welcome to the club and NICE upgrade! Almost as big a jump as ours from a Toyota Yaris! We got Xpel applied to the entire front, rockers and rear bumper as well then I applied Gtechniq CSL then EXO to the rest of the car. Slick as butter. Love it!
