I read somewhere RX has sun glass holder, does it apply to 2011 too? (as far as know, mine doesn't)

the sunglass holder went away in mid-2010 when ENFORM was added (the SOS button)

The 2010 has these three system options as well.

The paperwork would say that it is a 2010 and not '11. If they somehow faul that up then you've got a serious law suit and you'd be holding all the cards.

I think the extra 12V is the easiest give away.
But you could also look at the driver's side door and see when production was.

Or the tailgate to see if Lexus isn't there.

Body style 2010-2011
The body style is the same on both the 10 and 11 and won't likely change for 5 or more years, except for maybe minor grille or lighting appearance. We have a 2005 Avalon and the body style still looks the same on the 2011 models except for the fog lights and the tail lights. It is a great car however but we really like our RX. I really like the big screen nav. system. Now if only the nav update pricing was reasonable ???
Cheers,
JIm

I have 2011 FWD Rx with the sunglass holder, but I do not have SOS.

Hmmm, mine is also 2011 FWD RX with SOS thingy, but no sunglass holder. I'd rather have the sunglass holder.

nope, I don't have ENFORM. My RX is just the Premium package plus back-up cam, PA, and wood-trimmed steering wheel and shifter.

If I did this right, here's a pic of my sunglass holder. I guess it's in the place where the rest of you have SOS?
