Hi,

I am from India and NX 350h is sold in four trims here - Exquisite (base trim), Overtrail, Luxury and F-sport - All are CBU (Fully Imported cars from Japan and not built or assembled in India) - Retail prices here are 95,000$ to 105,000$ for them (Taxes contributing for the most part)

I have chosen to buy Lexus NX 350 but conflicted between Exquisite and Overtrail Trim - Later additionally comes with 18" wheels, AVS, Mark Levinson speakers, 360" degree camera et al - Base Trims are 20" wheels and Lexus 10 speaker system (mostly Panasonic)

I am upgrading from Toyota Corolla Altis 1.8VL bought in 2011 again an assembled unit with parts being imported from Thailand factory of Toyota. Toyota has no RAV4 and/or Crown SUVs in India - Trying to avoid migrating to German 3s

Trims are 7000$ apart on a product which is obscenely expensive and hence request to the experts on should I bite the bullet or stay comfy with base trim

Truly appreciate your advice

Thanks in advance,

Narayan

I would go for the over trail. The 360 camera and Mark Levinson are very nice options to have which I don't have on my car.

When I was buying my my thoughts were I am already spending 50k, why not to add another 10k and get a bunch of options and tech and keep it till the wheels falls off. So yeah spend a little extra and get yourself Overtrail or Luxury and drive it for the next 15+ years

Strange options - NX come with 20" or 18" RFT (Extended Mobility Tires) while RX come with 21" tubeless tires - Driving on RFTs outside Metro area in India is a huge risk esp. when there isn't a spare wheel - Both RX and ES 300h come with spare wheels too

If I do something on my own on the tires (not withstanding the cost), they will void 8 years of comprehensive warranty given on the car

People either buy ES 300h or RX it appears - NX is lost in the middle
