If not you may still be able to tell before delivery if you have a vin number for your order.
I went over item by item with my CA. The only features I will not get is pre-collision warning and lane departure warning. If for whatever the reason my NX does not come with triple L-shaped LED lights I will not take it because that feature is a deal breaker for me.

I found one in Scottsdale with the LED headlights and radar cruise. Wish it was a different color but at least I know they are making them. Guess I live on the poor side of town....

We are OFF the list now. Wife prefers the ES300h due to size, quietness & being able to get the color combo's she wants (NX's do not allow gray interior at this time).
One thing that "bugged" me about the sales rep we spoke with is that he stated flat out that "the collision avoidance/radar" is CUSTOM order ONLY when in fact... dealerships ARE getting them. In addition, he tried to tell me that "the Luxury package comes with the LED headlights like the ones that are on the RCF". He even showed us the L-shaped ones on the RCF on the floor to indicate that the Luxury package INCLUDED those L-shaped which would be different than the 3 LEDs in a row that are part of that $1,160 option. He's obviously mistaken but not worth arguing about. Not certain this sale rep is as knowledgable as he thinks he is but our prior prior rep had quit so we got this guy. What's funny is that I told the GM that we wanted someone who had been with the dealership for a while & he gave us this guy. Turns out this guy has only been there a bit under 2 years so..not REALLY a senior guy in my opinion. For future drama in our case, tune into the ESHybrid discussion.

It's been fun and thanks for all the FISH!!!!

It was $48k for the NX. The way they had it packaged. It did have the Luxury package. Wag is right on the headlights. I would pay that for them.

Lexus is made by Toyota and Toyota knows quite a bit about turbocharges and even superchargers.

Maybe the engine needs to be broken in? Not sure? or maybe the gas used was not good. Who knows?

Try another NX and compare.
