Default Changes for 2013 RX350

I just brought home my new 2013 RX last night. I held out for a 2013 for a few reasons, one mainly being the saddle interior. I was pleasantly surprised at one of the new options for 2013 that I wanted on my car; it exceeded my expectations: The Display Audio Package. I didn't get NAV, and I opted for the DA pkg instead. The back up camera is in the larger screen instead of the rear view mirror, which I liked better. But it also loaded all of my contacts from the phone. The number of contacts and speed dials have been increased this year. There were several upgrades to this pkg, which our salesman was eagerly reviewing - it was his first sale of a 2013 with the DA pkg. Just something I thought people might want to know.

As some other people noted in other posts, the tonneau cover doesn't attach to the back seats. The salesman went to attach it when walking us through our new car and realized that it didn't exist! He was surprised...

Regardless, I'm very happy with our purchase. It's our first Lexus, but not our first luxury brand vehicle. I did walk in with offers from other Lexus dealers. The whole process was easy and straightforward, but it took awhile.

kbtmom, welcome to CL and congrats on your new RX. We like pictures around here be sure to post some soon along with more details. I've seen the saddle interior in person and it does look nice. About time Lexus added it as an interior color option. Enjoy your first Lexus. I'm sure it won't be your last
