Hi everyone! My first post I thought should be this one. Proud owner of a 2007 RX350 with the premium package in Flint Micra. I will try to get some pictures up soon.
Thanks!
Thanks!

PT Premium Plus Package
NV Navigation System
HH Heated Front Seats w/Rain Sensing Wipers
FT 18" Aluminum Alloy Wheels
TO Towing Prep Package
I use to drive a Honda Accord 1994. The Honda was a dream car. Then I broadend my horizons and the Lexus was my ultimate dream car. Love it. Now my husband has jumped on the wagon he wants a 430.

Mookiekong and all:
Do you notice that the engine is not as quite as expected for a $40,000 car? When accelarating the speed (even at very low speed and lightly press the gas pedal), you will hear the engin is working somewhat hard.

This is the most beautiful picture of the car so far I have seen in this forum (good job). The silver color is awesome. I remember that I posted my opinion in color selection some time ago. This picture indicates that I made the right choice of Silver color with gray interior (also see the pretty interior picture above - gray with black).

Semi-impulse buy
I went to the dealer to look at the RX350 to find out what the options were and so forth...on Saturday, 30 December 2006. I drove one home that evening. Savannah Metallic, ivory leather interior, premium plus option package, nav system, 18 inch wheels (which I could have done without), XM radio, trailer hitch. Traded in a 2001 RX300 I'd bought new in November 2000.
Damn, but it's nice...
The extra power is noticeable. I was driving home down a rural highway, and went to pass a semi and another car (who'd passed me just as I was getting ready to pull out). Romped on the power, got past both, looked down to see the speedometer at 100 MPH and climbing - and it wasn't breathing hard. The RX300 would have been struggling at 90.
The engine is no noisier than the RX300 was, and the rest of the car is quieter (on the test drive, my roommate said "they started with quiet and took the noise out"). The shorter turning radius is nice, too.
Now, if I can just figure out how to eject the DVD from the nav system so I can poke around at it.
I'd post a picture, but it's way too cold to go outside in my Tron Guy costume. Yes, that's me.

thanks for sharing all the pics! My family has a 2007 RX 350 and I'm planning on getting my own. Don't know if I'll get the '08 or hold out for the '09 though. The pictures have definitely made it clear that I want the flint mica though! I pretty much just see silver (and a few black) around here!

RX350 in Tx
Picked up my 08 Crystal White RX350 about a week ago.
Decided against the Nav option -- didn't feel it was worth the investment for how I plan to use this vehicle.
It was a toss up between the 350 and an SRX -- the 350 won hands down.
Only have about 500 miles on it and am enjoying it very much.
One question though - what octane fuel is generally being used and why?

Hey everyone, I live in Vancouver and new to the the forum here. Finally got rid of a 1996 Dodge Caravan and become part of the Lexus owner.
2007 RX350
It's now around 1200miles and color is Breakwater Blue Metallic and black interior
It's basically all loaded except fancy sound system and navi.
