which features won you over with the 2013. Im still trying to decide myself.

I like the day time running lights that the 2013 has but i really lovr the afs that the 2012 has.

Power folding mirrors are cool but ill rarely ever use it and enform 2 looks good.but its a paid service.

I dont know maybe ill wait.

I liked the Lexus Display Audio Package, which displays the rear view image on a 7-inch screen rather than the rear view mirror and provides (slightly) upgraded audio. It still doesn't sound as good as the 2003 RX we had with the subwoofer under the passenger seat, but it's much better than the audio system in the 2009 RX I had.

The power folding mirrors also were big for me, too. Use those daily.

Did the lexus display audio package come standard.

Iagree, if you fold in your mirrors even close to daily, the power folding mirrors would be outstanding to have

Love the black, However on the gulf coast with very high Humidity and summer tempatures in the 90's the black makes it too hot for me to have in a car.

Better watch it, she just might take you up on it if hers is dirtier than yours

Here's a somewhat similar shopping trip: I was in the market for a new car and had already pretty much decided on the RX. I went to the dealer with my wife and a friend who was "just along for the ride". We looked at and test drove some cars and, long story short, we got our RX and our friend got herself a nice IS250. She jokingly warns our friends never to go car shopping with me, but she does love her IS .
