My '08 does, but I don't think it was a matter of model year, rather of versions/options.

I would think so, because I can't see any differences between '07 and '08 with regard to mirrors.
Surely your dealer will be able to confirm that, anyway.

If you should change the whole mirrors, you might as well consider those with the embedded turn signal, which are being discussed in this thread

I don't think that just by installing a folding mirror, that it would fold when locking/unlocking. The car's ECU computer that controls the mirrors would need to be programmed to do that, or replaced with one that has that feature.

In fact, it doesn't.
l0v3r, when I said that my '08 has auto folding mirrors, I understood you were talking of folding electrically, at the touch of a button - which is the factory option I've got on my RX.
If by 'auto' you meant linked to lock/unlock, I'm not aware of any RX 2nd gen with such feature.

You need Po-40. Here is the link how to upgrade folding mirror: http://st.club-lexus.ru/attach/u/97ea2ff1.pdf

If you read the last page of the Po-40 manual, it can be set up to fold on lock/unlock, so I think that is what you want.

FWIW, the button for folding the mirrors electrically is the small one to the right of the "L R" button, in the attached pic.

Sorry to bring back an old post - but I got one question.
My car doesn't have an automatic folding mirror button, so do I use my hand to fold the mirror in?
I tried to fold it manually, but it doesn't seem like it would move body{zoom:115%!important;**
