Default Wood Steering Wheel

What percentage of RX300s came with the wood wheel? How about the autochromic mirrors? Is there a thread on option packages?

I don't have the numbers, but as an original owner, I think most came with a wooden steering wheel and maybe the minority came with autochromic mirrors. Both were options, technically, but most RX300s came with one or more luxury option packages. It was a different era back then. You could order an RX300 with cloth seats and without a sunroof. I ordered mine with leather seats and autochromic mirrors, but without a sunroof. I ordered mine with the towing prep package, without hitch, but it came with the hitch anyway.

The wood wheel was only available from 2001-2003. It wasn't an option on the 1999 and 2000 models.

I would say the majority of RX300 have electrochromic mirrors because that was part of the Premium Package.
