Those summer wheels are sharp! And of course the USB is beautiful. Nice ride!

I just traded in my 2008 IS250 AWD for NX200t Base. Silver Lining with Black interior, Premium Package, power back door, heated steering wheel, electrochromic mirrors, blindspot monitoring, rear cross-traffic warning. I ruled out the navigation after hearing complaints about the touchpad from just about every review, and trying it myself on a demo ride. Also didn't need the system itself, since apps are cheaper and updated more regularly.
My wife and I had four demo rides in four different cars over a week or so before we decided. The ride is better than that for my IS250, but a bit harsher than that in my wife's RX250. Overall, it's quite acceptable to us. I had initially wanted Atomic Silver, but it was picking up a goldish-green shade I didn't want.

Just got our 2017 Base AWD last week. Nebula Gray/Black. Traded in my 09 TSX on it.....so far so good. In a perfect world I'll put 20's on it, RS-R Down springs and maybe some MGP red caliper covers
So far, I've changed out the cargo bulbs to LED and ran the wires for the Escort (need to get the "add a circuit" to finish).
Tomorrow is tint the front windows (15 or 20...undecided), tint on the top of the windshield (brow?), and possibly plasti-dip the emblems.
What is likely: 19s, no drop, no caliper covers.
I need a stash.....

Cerified Pre-owned 2015 NX300H
Just bought from Lexus dealer in Santa Monica, CA. Previously I owned Lexus 2009 GS350, sold it and get this one. It is a big change from sedan to SUV. Just want to know how could I use the GPS tracking without paying too much money.

Got my brand new 2016 NX F-Sport AWD last year because I needed a new daily driver. Atomic Silver on Black. I almost got a RX F-Sport but I liked the way the NX looked and the gas mileage. I've used it to pick up a new water heater, shipped out many car parts since I parted out my highly modded M3 to upgrade that to something faster soon, took road trips to LA, SD and Vegas from SF, to Reno and Tahoe from SF...

Voice recognition
2016 base Eminent white pearl, creme nulux. Just changed out California license plates for gold on black retro plates. Looks sharp on white car.
Just a comment on the voice recognition system. Just rolled over 10,000 miles on my Nx base and just a month ago figured out how to use Siri to text. A few months before that I figured out how to listen to a text by selecting the "Read" option when the message comes up and gently tapping twice on the touchpad. There are tutorials available on YouTube for a lot of the Nav system functions. I find that I can do almost anything with voice recognition. And it is actually easy to enter an address into the nav system using voice recognition. The touchpad takes a little bit of practice but after a while it's very easy. I even changed to an Australian voice for Siri and the grandkids think it is cool to listen to it. Too bad Lexus will not offer any voice changes. That lady is nice but some variety would be great.

2015 cpo
I realized my first post should have been here and not in the general section. Purchased a 2015 CPO, Silver Steak Lining, Black interior, Premium Package, Navigation Package, AWD last weekend. We traded a 2016 Rav4 XLE with higher mileage, which did have an impact on the trade. I'm really enjoying our new ride and look forward to learning more and maximizing the features through this forum. The NX 200t prompted a visceral reaction the first time I saw one on the road....so pleased to have "Lexi" added to our family. My 88 year old father has dubbed her "sexy".
For weekend fun, we have a Mazda Miata (06 Limited Edition) to provide the analog experience :-)
