A close-up of the "gap" probably isn't that useful because it's
something you'd notice from afar and not close-up. I personally
don't think it's that big a deal. There are other bigger asthetic
problems with the new RX that one can nitpick.
From a previous post, see for yourself, the top picture is the original RX 330.
The bottom picture is a photoshop showing what a RX might look like
without the "gap". There's not much of a difference.

Here are some photos of the hood gap, exterior, interior, etc. I noticed the gap as well, but I haven't thought about it since. I don't think it's something you would dwell on if you owned the car, since it's a pretty minor detail, and you usually aren't looking at the car from that perspective. Hope this helps!

Lexuslover - Yours is very nice, and obviously fully optioned. The first ones I got a chance to preview didn't look like yours. You my dear have a very "good one". The black interior is equally impressive. winner

Steve - As far as I know (from my purchase and discussion w/ dealers and on this forum), you cannot get those two things (ML audio and AFS lighting) together.
The ML audio is part of the VN fully loaded package (Nav/Lev), and the AFS is part of the VP performance package. It seems apparent, now that the first allocations are out in the U.S., that Lexus will not be combining these packages in an even more "loaded" packaged option.
The pics above of my new RX are the Nav/Lev package, including tow, 18" wheels, DVD ent, heated seats, rain-sensing wipers, etc., etc. This is the largest package available from Lexus (you can see all the packages on the website) at the moment.

What continues to "get" me though is that I have to go all the way out east to get a Perf/Nav combo. The only thing that combo is missing is wood steering wheel, RSES, Mark Levinson sound, and well, the large moonroof - but that one doesn't count does it? The RSES and steering wheel are easily added-on aftermarket - and at least with the RSES, aftermarket might just be a tad better than OE.
Bottom line is Perf/Nav can be "added on" to get a pretty sweet system - or at least closer to what I'd call a "Fully Loaded" car - whereas the Premium Plus or whatever the "Fully Loaded" midwest version is called cannot be "added on" to quite as easily. I'm speaking in respect to the goodies found on the Perf Package. Unless you're really good at adding a new transmission, air suspension, and those fancy AFS lights...
All zones should have been given a shot at the Perf/Nav...I guess if I really wanted it I could travel or have it shipped...but c'mon...

LexusLover...the reason I ask is because the projector beam xenons in your picture...I thought the HIDs in the premium were like last years (reflectors), and the AFS ones were the projector beam ones!! I'm so confused...I guess thats because in the brochure they show a picture with regular reflectors and they look like xenons????
