Just traded my 16" LX in for 17" LX
Hi guys, let me start out with my short story, i just had my 16" LX for four months and got a rock hit my windshield, got safelite try to fix it, but still there :( and I don't want to replace it because I afraid it would leak later, thinking hard for two months and finally trade it in for 17" LX i know i am dumb to do that, but i got a year newer and a great thing that i found on the new 17" LX is NO more white line where the speed odometer of the head up display on the windshield, i think Lexus corrected that issue which nice

The white line on the HUD never bothered me

So the question is did you get beat on the trade in? I traded my 15 LX for a 17 LX after a couple month. But the dealer called me and gave me 100% of what I paid for my 15 LX. The had a terrible month and wanted to get inventory moved on the last day of January bad for them. Great for me.

Congrats! You've lost some money but got a new car and its all worth it. I used to flip cars every 1.5-2 years and figure unless I keep something for years and years, its always going to lose money thru' depreciation and so my comfort zone is up to $10k per year of ownership. The trouble with LX though is that it sort of kills desire to go to something else. A Range Rover is always intriguing, but I just can't live with something so high maintenance

WTF?
safelite CAN and WILL replace your glass with OEM if you ask them too. They do a pretty good job. U lost a nice chunk of change, but u are happy. So did they fix the tranny lag and shifting issues? Any other differences. Please post up pics. |

I think I'll trade in my 16' LX too for a new GLS or a Range Rover . . . I can't believe Lexus corporate say they sold me a Shimamoku black steering wheel when, in fact it is regular wood processed steering wheel tinted black. Even worser, the tinted black wood does not match my linear expresso wood which is Shimamoku just called by another name. All this information has been confirmed with two local Lexus dealers, and wait . . . also by Lexus Corporate. The damage has been done, Lexus.
Oh yeah, the stupid white line under the speedo on the HUD is weird indeed. One time, same on them. Two times, shame on me. Never Lexus again if I have my way. |
My 2016 LX will be traded for a new 2017 LX in the next couple of weeks. You only go around once.

The GLS is nice but the interior is really out dated compared to the C, E or S class. The advantage of trading it in now is that you won't lose much especially if you had a good discount when you got it. |
i didnt know "worser' was a word.
Why cant u all wait for the next generation LX, its around the corner and coming next year? |
"worser" is a word on the LX forum because for quite a few of us Engrish is not a first or second language,
What's even better, most people here don't have to justify their purchasing decisions to other inquiring minds. |
