At that point I had already decided to go to Kinko's and reduce the size of the one they sent me. I'll just place the shield in the opening and mark with a pen where to make the cuts.
I was surprised when I received the second one and more surprised when it was marked for a GX 460. It was way too small.

So far we have pics of Black Onyx, Claret Mica, Starfire, Tungsten, and Knight's Armor Pearl.

Are there any new owners of Satin Cashmere or Peridot Mica?

After six months, we should have the entire spectrum covered.

Which interior color did you choose?

What's the total wait time for your GX?

Default CA update

Been frantically looking for the 'right' GX for me in SoCal... Seems that inventory on the base models is slim pickens for interior/exterior color combo's. Mostly black interior's.

Getting my new one tomorrow. Preferred white with sepia but am settling for silver with sepia. I'm getting lazy in my old age anyway and don't wash my car as much as I used to.

Most (st)ealers are stocking premiums in my neck of the woods it seems. I agree with earlier posts... i consider myself a very capable driver but as this is my 18th car in 18 years of driving, i'm a bit de-sensitized by all the bells and whistles.

I'm currently in an Audi A3, which I downsized from a GX-470 and i have to say, i've been miserable for the entire lease. The europeans cars are great only when you're over 3500rpm and diving into a corner, but so are the japanese and you just get SO much more value and features out of a lesser price. not to mention the reliability. my 2008 A3 burns at least a quart of oil per month.

Anyway, excited to be back in a Lexus. even converted the wife out of her jetta and into an RX!

If anyone has any cross bars to sell, let me know.
cheers,

drove home 7-26-10. Fresh off the ship, made in june 2010, and only 2 miles.
Very nice!

Thanks for all the pics.

I noticed a typo in your signature. It says Ecru instead of Sepia.

Keep us posted on your mods!
