The salesman at Pohanka here in VA had originally expected some this week. But he is now (as of 2 May) saying another week of two for their initial shipment of RX350s with the 450h sometime after that.

I don;t know if i did the right thing or not but I went ahead and purchased an RX 350 2012...I was at the NY Auto show and saw the 2013 and was not impressed, but that was me, it is as beautiful, if not more than the 2012. My problem as I rationalized it, was that the 2013 would be more money, that the beautiful features (front LED lights and other improvements) would be distributed in "packages" that I may not be interested in, like NAV, etc and I was afraid I was going to wind up with a vehicle almost exactly as the 2012 for more money because my negotiations could not have the advantage of a model year going out. and since I am buying and hoping to own for at least 4 or 5 years, I decided on the 2012.....justa thought..

The greatest challenge is making a decision that works for YOU, not other people or those of us on the forum. Congratulations on your purchase and ENJOY!

I'll be hitting two Lexus dealers tomorrow. At the NY Auto Show they had a '12 RX350, not a '13, downstairs with the RX450h and other SUVs. F-Sport was on the main level with the rest of the cars. So I'm curious to see what the RX350 looks like in person.

The largest Lexus dealer in the west, Longo Lexus, has a 2013 with VIN listed on Autotraderl.com AND all of the San Diego dealers have tons of 2012's listed on Autotrader so they know they are coming!!

I saw two here at the dealership but they aren't prepping them yet because they still have excess 12s to move. Nice looking.

Lexus showroom in Bangkok, Thailand already has. I just went there for a service this morning and saw it. Lookiing good but you can barely notice that it's much different from the 2012 model.

I was driving past my local Lexus dealer tonight and noticed a lone black 2013rx. I plan to stop by on my way home from church tomorrow and check it out.

Saw a truckload of what looked like 2013's headed the opposite direction of me this morning on the freeway! Didn't realize until i got way to close to even take out my cellphone.
