Default Just got the 2013 RX350

We traded in our 2010 for the 2013. Pohanka has a few in stock we were lucky to get all the options Obsidian Black with Camel/Espresso leather interior plus NAV. The pictures are a chronicle of the entire day ! The new NAV options are pretty sweet.

At the dealer Pohanka Lexus Chantilly, VA



First Road trim to Middleburg, VA

Love the LEDs


New Steering Wheel


Interior


Love the new leather


Wheel Pic 2


All Dirty with bugs


First Bath , Clay Bar, Polish, and Wax








Really like the new interior, steering wheel and over all refinement of the RX. They definitely made a bunch of subtle changes to the vehicle.

Yes, after looking the '13 all over I just couldn't settle for a '12 to save a few bucks!!

Same with us we could have gotten a 2012 for a lot less.

Nice ride. Thanks for the pics - especially of the saddle tan interior. Glad you walked (drove) away with a car you're happy with.

What options did you get besides Nav?

How did you make out MSRP-wise?

You need to update your sig now.

Nice Black. Sad thing is that the front plate is an eyesore to such a nice vehicle.

finally the steering controls are vertically. I have the similar leather color in my MX-5 and really like the color.

word of caution, if you have body damage, do not take it to Pohanka collision center in Chantilly. horrible quality, and to this date I am angry how they repaired/painted then 6 months old RX. I heard from others that Pohanka hires people right out of training school.


Quick Reply: Just got the 2013 RX350
