I'm not seeing any RXs with MLs on the lots. Did you special order it to get it or what? I'm in SF Bay Area, not So. Cal.

[mindmachin]

I just ordered a new RX400h, it had to be a special order because I wanted the Mark Levinson sound system. Dealers here in the Midwest don't stock them therefore you have to special order and wait 3 months. Apparently ML isn't common in any market except maybe California?

So by March next year I should have possession of:
2008 RX400h, Brandywine/Ivory, ML Prem Sound, Navigation, Premium Plus package, 18" alloys, heated seats, towing prep, rain sensing wipers, & wood trim.

Also i made a deal with the dealer to keep the OEM tires and I am supplying my own 5 new Bridgestone Alenza 235/55/18 to be installed by the dealer before delivery.

I did the same thing on my 07 Acura MDX (255/55/18) and I love the Bridgestone Alenza on that car.

I am big on the having the best tire for the application and most OEM tires are
not all that they could be or for that matter should be.


Current other cars:

2007 Acura MDX, (Bridgestone Alenza and Blizzak LM25 4x4 winter)
2007 Prius (replaced OEM with Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Position)
2005 Porsche Cayenne S (Pirelli P Zero summer, Dunlop Grantrek M2 winter)

Delivered to dealer Saturday. Saw it Sunday night at the dealer (in the rain). Pick it up Wednesday after XM and Ipod install etc.

Picked up my 2008 Granite Mica RX400h w/black leather & walnut, navigation and tow hitch on Thursday, 12/19/2007. It's my Christmas present to myself! Traded in my 2005 Acura MDX. The RX is a little smaller, but much more luxurious than the MDX. The new RX had Goodyears on it, but thanks to this forum, I insisted that the dealer swap them for the Michelins that were on the showroom model (they didn't want to do it, but I told them it was a deal breaker and I was leaving...it worked!) The Hybrid will take some getting used to, especially when you get in and turn the key and it's completely silent. So far I am very impressed with the RX. My wife has had 2 Lexus vehicles - an older (93) ES300 and now a 2002 SC430. Each time I took the SC in for service, the tech would put me in an RX loaner to try to persuade my to trade in my Acura...it worked! AcuraMDX.org is a great forum for the MDX, so I am hopeful that this one is as good for the RX.

just for more pics.

[TwoHybrids]

Here's mine - with pics!

2007 RX400h. All-Wheel Drive. Mica Blue. Navigation and Mark Levinson sound system. Ivory leather and wood trim interior. Stock 18-inch rims with stock Michelins. Tinted rear windows. Wheel locks, cargo net, bumper cover, and all those other profit-lard options dealers love to slap on :-)

Purchased new in March 2007 from dealership in Beverly Hills. Had 3 miles on it when I received ownership. Currently has 11,000 miles on it.

These pics are from early autumn 2007. The oceanside shots are near Cambria, California. The pic in the field is a farm my family visited in San Luis Obispo County.









Love my car!

Happy trails to everyone.

Mine's a 2006 Black beauty with tan interior.
Nav/ML with rear DVD and back up camera.
Towing package (dealer installed)
38K miles so far
GY RSA's off and Michelins on (no problems since)

Next modification: screen for A/C condensor (have one made for $75 and save $1,600 )

Traded a 2003 XTerra SE/SC for it. Went from 12 mpg to 26 mpg (when I don't drive it like I stole it ) combined.
