Lexus officially announced the 2005 Lexus Rx330 pricing on Sept 3:
"The RX 330 luxury utility vehicle has been enhanced for 2005 by adding the power rear liftgate, 8-way power passenger seat, and a wood steering wheel and shift **** to the list of standard features. The available Lexus Navigation System gets upgraded software, and adds voice activation and Bluetooth® capability. Both RX models get a price increase of $500 with the MSRP for the RX 330 FWD model at $35,775 and the RX 330 AWD model at $37,175."
Seems a good deal for $500 more. Hope the 05 DVD for the NAV is better than the 04 DVD for the LS430's NAV which has many bad data points. I heard that the 05 RX330's deliver 1 LESS mpg. Will it accelerate better now? Or is it make the RX 400h's mileage gain look more impressive?

I would guess it's just more about making the sticker more accurate with what a lot of people have observed as true fuel economy, but just a guess.
Does seem like a pretty solid deal for $500 more ... I'm sure they get it back somewhere else in the packages though.

I'm looking at getting either the 04 or 05 RX330. I was originally going to wait for the 400h but since it’s delayed till April, I don’t think I should trust my current car that long.
Anyway, does anyone know when Lexus changes over to the 05 model year? Are there any changes scheduled for the 05?
I wanted Bluetooth but I have not seen that listed in any of the 330 information I’ve seen so far.
