Our Nebula Gray Pearl RX450H is plenty man enough to drive as our primary car. Since the wife only drives a few hundred miles per year, I'm basically her Chauffeur. It is my choice to drive it aggressively in Sport mode or normally in ECO mode.

The day I come home and it looks like this, is the last day I'll drive it though.

I used to have a black RX450h and it was my daily drive while My wife drives her 2010 RX350. I sold my h and bought a Tacoma DCLB.

I'm a 28 year old guy looking to get one in the next year. Love the F Sport in that metallic gray with the HIDs and VDIM.

The RX is not my primary vehicle but I've been driving it around for now since we had our little one.

I have my s2000 and 2G RL but only put up less than 100 miles within the last 6 months due to winter and our little one on the S. The RL is barely driven as well.

Have both the RX F-Sport and LX and hate to say it but the LX stays in the garage more and more. As much as I loved the ride of the LX it seems rather large and clumsy in comparison to my RX.

My RX is my daily driver, at least in the winter.

Yes its a chick-car, especially in red.
Not that I particularly care though.

In the nice weather I drive the convertible, which I'm told is also a chick-car. Again, I don't care.

Hi All,

New Guy here. As of yesterday I turned in My Man Card and my G35x and took delivery of a Nebula Grey 2014 Rx.

The G was 9 years old and had 150,000 totally trouble free miles. The G was great 80% of the time but at times we just need more space but not big clunky SUV type of space, so the Rx seemed to be the right medicine for us.

The Rx is my daily driver (long Island NY to LGA airport) and I think it was the right choice for us.

Looking forward to absorbing all the good advice that is available here at ClubLexus.

Drive On!

I would happily drive that. And I would kick anyone's *** who laughed

I drove an RX for many years before recently trading it in for the '14 GS. I love the GS but I still miss it, so we traded the other half's ride in for a '14 RX and couldn't be happier with two nebula grey lexuses (lexi?) in the garage.

Congrats G35xNowRX. No worries, the RX will not emasculate you. The proof is right here. I'm in the minority, LOL! And I haven't turned into a mom that plays soccer either

The '99 RX that we had was the primary vehicle for nearly 10 years and 140,000 miles. The 2010 we now have is the primary vehicle as well. We have no doubts that the RX will fit into whatever category you put it in.
