Hi everyone!

I have been looking at the second gen. RX 350's, and a Brandywine color is at a private dealer in my area. I noticed its made in Japan ( Vin starts with a J ) Then I go on Autotrader to compare to others, and noticed all the Brandywine Mica color RX's are made in Japan, and also come with 18 inch rims instead of 17 inch. Does anyone here know if there is any other differences, and why would they change rim size form the Japan version compared to the Canadian RX. I like the Brandywine Mica with a black interior!
-I may have to upgrade from my 1st gen. RX!

In Australia, the RX350's came with 18's as part of what of what they call "Sports Luxury". This is pretty much ML, Nav and everything else. The 2nd gen RX is sold in Australia as either "Sports" or "Sports Luxury". All Australia delivered vehicles are Japan built.

There are many Canadian built RX with 18" wheels. Part of the Performance Package. Just means that all Brandywine built came equipped with that package by default.

We have a 2008 Brandywine Mica with black interior - awesome color combination...we get compliments about the color just about anywhere we go...and yes it is the only RX (non-hybrid) color made in Japan. Get one!
