First decide what TYPE of car you want. Sedan, SUV, sporty car etc etc. For first car consider Honda Civic or other smaller 4 cylinder machines.
The RX is a great car but you're comparing apples to oranges. Not to stereotype but the RX is a luxury get around town "soccer mom" vehicle with 4WD added.

. But I got a great deal. If you are looking for a used RX 330 it's a good decision, it's cheaper than buying new, should be in the $10K - 18K range or lower and great reliability for Lexus in general. However, that does not mean you shouldn't get a mechanic to check it out or buy certified.

The RX330 is basically a people / cargo carrier, it is by no mean a fun car to drive. If what you are looking for is a used entry level luxury SUV, then the RX should be one of your considerations.

Zane818, seems to me you might want to test drive the RAV V6. It is as fast as the pontiac G8 and its cheap on insurance. It is consider a small SUV but it hold more cargo than the RX. It also handle better than the RX and much quicker than the RX from 0-60. What you will be giving up on is some luxury and sound insulation.
I have a 98 C-RV bought new and I can tell you it has been a great car but it is no Lexus, not even close. I only keep it to transport my dogs and loan to the kids when one needs it.
