I was curious to know if lexus has any plans to put the keyless smart access, like what's in the new IS, into future RX's. I am currently trying to decide between the RX 350 and the new Acura MDX. I saw a pix of the concept vehicle on their website and was intrigued.

 

I am also waiting for the RX to be equipped with the Smart Access, since the Japanese version already has this feature.

 

All lexus models will eventually have the keyless access. I asked our dealership when they plan to have it in the RX series and they stated that Lexus focused on installing them in all their sedans first (e.g. ES 350) and will next make it available on the RX. Since they have Smart Access on a $20k Toyota Prius, why not on a $50k RX400h? We have a perfectly fine '99 RX 300 with only 59k miles on it that we are holding onto until Lexus gets it right with the RX 350/400h. When they have it available with Smart Access is when they'll have our repeat business.
