Just purchased a CPO 2008 RX 350. I must say, I wasn't planning on buying a Lexus (or spending what I did), but I'm extremely happy. We were actually just planning on finding a Honda Pilot (newer body style) or a CRV. We were looking to replace an older Pilot, but because I've been driving a Camry as my daily, I wanted to give Toyota/Lexus a look. It's came with Navigation, new floor mats (plus the old ones), new tires, new brakes, and six (6) complimentary oil change/tire rotation services within three (3) years. I'll edit "My Garage" soon.

Quick Specs:

2008 RX 350 AWD
  • Exterior: Flint Mica
  • Interior: Light Grey Leather
  • Miles: 64,740
  • Navigation, Backup Camera & Mark Levinson Sound.
  • Bluetooth.
  • 18" Premium Wheels with brand new tires and brakes.
  • Moonroof, Heated Seats, & Rain Sensing Wipers.
  • Park Assist.
  • Mint Condition.

Price out the door: $25,000. I was able to talk them down over the course of the week from a sticker of $28,800 to the $25,000. Patience pays off, and I think I got a great deal.

I'm super excited to see what I can do with this thing. Pics soon.

You will be very happy with this. You will also be glad you didn't get the CR-V. I had a CR-V and it is a good little suv but it is way under powered and seemed very cheap in feel. That being said it is still in my family as I gave it to my son who lives in San Francisco as it is very easy to get around in in the city.

Welcome to Club Lexus

There is a huge source of info here at your fingertips. There are also several very good vendor discounts to examine.

I believe you will find this a really friendly and helpful place.

Again, welcome to the forum.

It's finally sunny and 70 here in Indianapolis, so I'll try and get a few "glamor shots" to post. Thanks for all of the warm welcomes! I look forward to becoming part of the community.

EDIT: Photos attached.

Will post more of the interior soon. Will also be posting a part list and image/video tutorial of the interior lights I'm about to replace with LEDs. Those should be in next week.

Welcome to the club.

I've been in here for almost 2 years and gained a wealth of information. The search function is really helpful and be sure to register your vehicle, go to lexus.com click on owner's resources on the upper right side until they move it again (or go to https://secure.drivers.lexus.com/lex...-lexus/home.do) so you can see the service history of your vehicle at the stealership oops I meant dealership and be notified of the maintenance schedule or if there are any recalls for your vehicle.
