Default Local Dealer Provided 2016 LX Loaner
So, I took my 2010 LX in for its 75k mileage service and the local service guys were like, "Well, I guess he HAS to take it..." and then look at me, and say, "I am sorry...". I look at the guy and am like, "What???"

He says, "You'll see..."


OMG!!!

They gave me a brand new 2016 fully loaded LX as A LOANER! WOW! My first house cost almost as much as this loaner car, but holy cow, is it NICE!!!!

Let's just say that I NEEEEEED to try it out.... ALL DAY!

I have never seen a LX loaner! Congrats!!!

Hope it does not ruin the love for your 2010LX!

Enjoy, I love mine!

For the cost of the 75K, they owe you this!

Since you've been spoiled with such a loaner, demand nothing less from now on. It's only the LS600H and the mighty LFA left from here!

For a day in the LFA, I would take my new LX in for it's 75K NOW!

Yes, they do...

BTW, when I asked how they could do an LX as a loaner, the service rep told me that they cannot keep the new LX on the lot because they sell out so fast. This was the only way to keep one available to demo. Gotta love that! I think that I may have been the first actual customer to use it too.

Yeah, she is sold. My wife that is... I can't afford this thing!

I wouldn't mind an LX loaner, Gas mileage be damned.

I'd be quite content with a GS loaner TBH, and thrilled with an LS loaner.

Normally, the loaner here has been a stripped down RX, which is fine for a loaner... but WOW has this been very nice to ride in!
