No, I meant $25,000. To upgrade from a 2007 with 25000 miles to a new (last summer) '09 with AWD. That included tax.

I'm happy to report that this car did REALLY well in the 5-6 inches of snow we got yesterday. It really was great. The RWD 460 I had previously was pretty good in the snow, but snowy/slushy intersections and driveways were always treacherous, and even light snowfall required snow mode to avoid problems. The '10 AWD is really great - I had no problems in any intersections or on any snow-covered roads.

Love this car!

Quick question - does anyone know if Lexus got rid of the Gracenote CD database? I notice that when I put in CDs that the track info doesn't come up like it did in the '07.

We finally had a nice day after a cold and sloppy winter, so I cleaned up the new 2010 SWB AWD (Satin Cashmere Metallic exterior with Alabaster/matte interior) and took a few pictures. This car has been great all winter - the AWD is definitely the way to go if you live in a winter climate.

(Sorry for the iffy quality of the pics - I just snapped them with the iPhone camera...)
