Default Our RX450h (few photos..not very good photos))

Here are a few photos I took yesterday with the cell phone. One was taken while I was driving. It shows the HUD as 61. I will have much better images hopefully later today ot this evening. As it turns out, we are picking up the car late this afternoon. The dealer worked hard to get it ready before we fly to Seattle early tomorrow morning. The last image here is of the Lexus specialist getting the car ready.

Happy you decided to pick it up before you left. You'll feel much better knowing it's safe in your garage and not on the showroom or lot with someone with sticky fingered kids crawling through it. Maybe it wouldn't happen, but ...

Now you know it wont .

Enjoy your vacation. Is that Starfire Pearl? If so, it's the color of ours.

Agreed. I always strongly recommed to do so. (as long as you're in the good/safe neighborhoods.)

Well, enjoy your trip.

Hi folks! The RX450h is safely in the garage now but we will miss it. There is so much to learn about the car, but we just do not have enough time. I should be in bed now so that I can wake up at 3:00 AM. Our flight departs at 5:15 AM CDT.

I have one quick question that someone may answer before I go to bed. On the HUD, I only see the speed of the vehicle. I do not see the audio station that I am listening to. Why is this? I thought that the Audio info was also suppose to show. Since I have not yet entered a destination on the Nav, I realize that the road guidance will not show up. Our salesman will give us a detailed lesson when we return. There was no time today.

Photos will have to wait until I return.

Owner Manual starting from PAGE 171 does show some info about HUD and Audio.


Great night and great trip.

Is that a scuff plate you have fitted to your rear bumper? Perhaps if you get the chace, can you post some pics of it? Thanks.

The HUD will only show audio when when you make a change such as volume or station. It will show navigation when a turn is coming up. It only shows the speed all the time.

Thought I would post a couple photo's of my new baby in this thread. Didn't see another thread with pictures posted. Rainy day, so pictures are not the best. Getting front windows tinted on Monday. Smoky Granite with black interior, NAV, premium,comfort, 19inch wheels.
