Lexus RX350
Just bought my 2007 RX350 earlier this month. 30,100 on odo. Looks like no one ever sat in it. Cream puff. Original owner had it parked in a carpeted garage, All papers, Lexus service, etc provided. So excited. Purchased the Lexus Platinum Warranty covering me bumper to bumper until 80K.

Hello
Hey,
I have 2004 RX350 Green color with gray leather interior. Had the car for about 6 years runs great. Only problem I had is with the interior dashboard has a lot of cracking. That is probably because I live in Florida. Another issue I had was the headlights are getting all foggy and stuff. However, I saw this trick online if you clean it with toothpaste it removes the fog out of it. So I gave it a shot and it worked great. So I decided to record it and share my results with others. Check it out.
Let me know what you think.

Just picked up an 09 w/74K almost fully loaded. Nav, back up camera, Zenons, only really missing Levenson sound, but I don't really care. Don't really like the chrome wheels but they do have almost brand new Michelins. The best part is it has Black wood interior. Seemed to be pretty rare. sorry for the crappy pic.

She's all mine!!!
2008 400h - Just picked her up from the carmax. I have a couch full of accessories that will be installed in the next 2 weeks. Interior and Exterior cleaning processes would be appreciated from the group......Carmax did next to nothing on the inside so restoring and protecting is a major need needed.

2006 rx 330
Hello: Purchased this vehicle for my wife. Bought it new in 2006.
Happy with the vehicle.
This month
I started to to DYI maintenance for the first time, since I bought it. Lexus dealer is just to pricey for me, especially for DYI items such as oil changes , break pads, tire rotation etc.
I read the forums on how to do some of these things, I am grateful for all the posts from contributing members..

Hi All!
I'm from Ukraine. I bought RX-350 2006 more than a year ago. Now I'm a Lexus fan
Now it has about 60,000 miles. It's fully loaded and everything works fine/

Howdy all,
My name is Steve and I live in the Dayton, OH area. Just purchased my first Lexus:
2005 RX 330 w/86,000 miles
Neptune Blue Mica with Taupe interior (beautiful!)
Has everything but ML sound and rear entertainment systems
Also has an aftermarket remote starter made by CompuSTAR
Previously drove a 2008 CR-V and before that a 2004 Ford Explorer (which I really did like). So, my wife and I were looking at late model Escapes and were all set to close the deal on one pending the dealer accepting our offer but they never called back (I also had my eye on a 2008 Acura RDX but the wife wasn't fond of it...). While waiting for the return call from the Ford dealer, I also did some more searching on-line and found this beauty for quite a bit less than the Escape (and the RDX) so we jumped on it. Thank God that Ford dealership has crappy customer service! (and they still have the Escape, hee-hee).
I have always been "frugal" with my spending and never knew why anyone would spend so much for the "luxury cars". Well, suffice it to say my eyes have been opened and I can definitely see the reason and the value behind it (though I think I will still always buy used).
Cheers!

Hi guys. New member here.
A couple years ago my mom purchased LS 460 L. Thought at the time it was weird that she didn't trade-in for it. Now I know why. Since I've just finished school, as my graduation gift my parents gave me her:
2005 RX 330 AWD w/86,000 miles
Obsidian with black interior (my parents only buy black on black cars)
Pretty base, no GPS or other extras that I'm aware of, but I love it (especially since I was driving a Chevy Malibu before).
The one thing extra my folks did have done to it right after purchase, was gold badging. Now, I know the general consensus on these forums is that the gold package is so 90s, tacky, etc... But I love it. Black & gold is my favorite color combo, and I think it's gorgeous. (My mom also had her Obsidian LS 460 L badged in gold)
Not planning on any major mods, just a few exterior accessories to make it more personal.
Happy driving!

Hello everyone. I just bought me an 04 RX 330 after driving a Camry for close to 10 years. Its bamboo pearl with 57k miles on it but everything is standard factory. I'll be doing some upgrades starting this week.
