Excellent news. Great to see someone on board will get the early built 450h.

You can only buy these with the HID headlights. Check out the configurator at Lexus.com. My vehicle is equipped exactly as shown on the website.

I thought we can get LED headlamps...

LED will provide Hybrid RX10 the exclusive look, separated from the regular RX10.

I don't believe that is the case. Ours will have LED headlights. We specifically ordered it with LED and it was accepted. It will be here very late this month or the first of July.

Pats-it does come with LED but it may be part of the package--when my dealer ordered it he said he had to list the option but he thought it was part of std equipment or one of the option packages. The "system" was being strange in accepting the order.

when you get it--can you advise the truth and reality?

(and now later as I look at the website--the website does not show many options --ie levinson, parking asst, hud, luxury pkg--it does not warm my heart to see the lexus site does not list the options correctly--in addition I think LED taillights are std, not headlights--but who the heck knows?)

I searched Lexus site and found Chicago and Iowa areas come with Lux pkg and LED headlamps on their 450h. This seems the easy option for dealers out there if Lexus really does this way. So far NE, SE, S, W, areas don't have these... For other regions, dealers may need to work a little harder to get them at this moment if Lexus website info is meaningful.

Let us know all about it. Mine is due in port on the 18th. I don't look for it here in Atlanta till next Monday.

Some of the prices are very confusing. The comfort package according to the website lists the lights as part of it for $825 but there is a separate charge for them of $1175 on the inventory report. And also another $110 chg for the radio which is supposed to be part of the Nav system for $2440. So if yours has these options can you tell us how it breaks down?

I called Lexus on it yesterday and 'THEY' still haven't figured out the answer. Kinda looks like a $1275 error in pricing. But my dealer is confident we'll get it worked out.

My invoice is broken down exactly like this. It all adds up to the correct price, these other items are not included in the packages:
base prce $41660
Comfort pkg. $825
In dash cd changer $110
19" wheels $660
HID lights $1175
Navigation system $2440
Intuitive Park Assist $500
Premium Pkg. $2400
Wood & Leather Wheel $330
Cargo Mat $92
Cargo Net $59
Wheel Locks $81
Destination charge $875

Total $51207

Just like mine, but the changer is listed as 'standard' equipment if you look. And the lights as part of the comfort pkg. When do you get yours?

the comfort packages sometimes appears as a 2,000 charge incl the lights---but now it appears as 825 and the lights are 1175 as a separate item.

thats makes you wonder if you could get the comfort pkg w/o the lites?

I don't understand all this confusion. I suggest you not pay any attention to what they have on the Lexus Website at this point. Just order the darn thing exactly how you want it configured and that's the end of it. I know for a fact that ours is coming in exactly how we ordered it (includes LED headlights). As I stated on several occasions already, we are getting basically every option except for the rear seat entertainment system. BTW, I live in Iowa if it makes any difference on ordering.

I do agree that special order would work and get what we want. But, not all the dealership will do the special order for customers. The various treatments and deployments by Lexus would really drive us crazy and make ppl confused.

It's always fun to see Lexus digs the holes and mess up everything. Wish they will learn it and work out the better plans next year.

I should be ok--I have it ordered the way I want it. Just need it to be built that way. My MSRP should be just a tad over 54k--a tad more than I thought it would be--and that does not incl the 875 shipping--which is unclear whether it is in the base price of the 450 or not. Much like just about everything else Lexus is doing withthe rx'10 is unclear.

This is not the experience that I-- a soon to be first time owner of Lexus expected.
