The 1/4 mile times Lexus posts, 15.5 (FWD), 15.7 (AWD), seem a little more conservative (or maybe realistic for a change). I applaud Lexus for finally coming out with this high hp machine. Hopefully, I can encourage some of you RX350 owners to hop out to the track.

even though its FWD, do u think now Infiniti FX35 buyers will give the new EX a glance because it has enough power to go head to head probably with the FX?

Real performance "freak" will neither look at the RX nor the FX. But if one have to consider all the compromises, like cargo/passenger space, reliability, gas mileage, etc, then one may look at the FX or maybe the RX350. A person who have "considerations" in mind is not a "freak" after all

The website claims 0-6 in 7.4. I believe the my 2004 takes 7.8? I definitely thought the 350 would have a way better time than that maybe even in the 6's?? I'm going to wait for the new body ('09?)...

Someone earlier said the front bumper is different i dont see any changes does anyone see any styling changes.
I believe they changed the differential gears when they went to the 350
I though RX350 was AWD, too?

I had lunch today have some friends down here with boatloads of cash (I don't) and they want a high powered SUV (even if it is a modified one), but they all turned down the Cayenne and the higher powered X5s. They actually wish either the FX or even the new RX was down here.

Is Lexus or Infiniti available in Mexico (if Mexico is what you mean by "down here)? If they are not I can tell why they want the FX or the RX over the Cayenne if they have boatload of cash -- they just want something "different".
Honestly, if I have boatload of cash, I will get a Cayenne Turbo S over the RX400h. Oh, what the heck, why not both if I have boatload of cash
Your friend should consider the Audi Q7 4.2. That's a very nice vehicle.
