Traded the RX330
Well with this past weekend being a great time to buy a car, I traded in the RX330 for a 2011 Acura TSX. Before you flame the car for the beak, the car interior is quite nice and the gas mileage is better. I definately learned alot about the RX from all of you here on the forum and will linger around to stay up to date with Lexus news. I think sometime in the future I would like to return to Lexus, maybe a new gen RX or LS.

Is the 4 cylinder TSX a turbo? I was looking at a TSX last year but decided on a BMW instead. The Acura was a pretty fun car but it had some issues. Good luck! Do you miss the size and space of your RX yet?

I can understand. I love my RX330 and wouldn't buy the new third gen RX as it doesn't ride as well, IMO, nor does it appeal to my sense of style. I'm going to have to consider trading pretty soon and sadly it likely won't be another Lexus. I've loved the RX, the dealership and quality of service and would love to stay but I can't bring myself to like the new RX.
Good luck with your new ride.

All cars are designed primarily to appeal to women including the third gen. Just a fact of modern life, the ladies make the buying decision.
I suppose you can get used to anything but the interior feels claustrophobic to me and you have to admit, that dash is straight out of a 1989 Mercury land yacht. I like the front end but the sides and rear look "unfinished" to me. I will no doubt continue my habit of buying clean, several year old RX and a 3 gen is most likely in my future but we will have a 4 or 5 gen to complain about by then.
