Default Question on 2010 packages

Hi there,

I am currently in the process of quoting a few dealers on a 2010 RX350 AWD, and I am really confused on the way certain options are packaged. I understand that they have standard builds that are shipped to dealers on the east coast, but would like some clarification with regards to these packages. I'm trying to get as much info as I can before I walk into a dealership, so I don't waste any time.

I'm really only interested in the premium/comfort and HIDs as far as options go. Is it possible to just get those? According to edmunds.com, that's the typically equipped configuration (sans HID). A dealer responded to me indicating that the comfort package requires NAV. Is she wrong? Am I wrong?

Thanks in advance

Yeah,I was told here in Jersey that if I want the comfort pkg,I'd have to get NAV or special order.I went for the NAV.
HIDs are part of the comfort pkg.

Thx Joeb427. Do you mind if I ask which dealer you bought at and if you would recommend them? My guess is that most dealers will only have Nav available.

I bought from TriCounty Lexus a couple of miles from me.I bought a ES350 from Prestige and I'm not crazy about Prestige.
TriCounty is so-so and was much better when my son in law and I bought Lexus vehicles from that dealer a few years ago..
My salesman and a great guy sales manager are no longer there.Good people that I miss.
I had to get the NAV to get the comfort pkg.So any dealer will work for you.

Wow, that's a bummer. My dealer, Lexus of Bridgewater, gets RXs without nav but I'm not sure about the comfort package

tk, give Lexus of Bridgewater a shout. If they don't have what you're looking for, they can probably check with their other dealer, Lexus of Edison. I've been going to Bridgewater for 12 years. All three of my RXs are from there. Good luck in your search.

Hi Kitlz, Bridgewater was actually the dealership that informed me of this restriction.

I'd believe them if that's what they said. Bridgewater normally has a decent stock of RXs on hand with various packages. But I opted to go the special order route on my 450h to get exactly what I wanted. A pain, yes, but worth the wait. I'm sure you'll find one you like.

I'm glad to hear that you had a good experience with them. Would you mind if I ask who you dealt with there?

It isn't required, but it would be an unusual find. Since you are looking at a 2010, year-end model, so inventory will be limited. You may have better luck with the 2011 model.

PM sent. Bridgewater recently received a special allocation of '10 RXs. Hopefully they still have some left.
