Finalizing RX 350
I'm in the process of finalizing a CPO 2013 RX 350 with 33k miles for 35,382 out the door price. The dealer isn't going below this price. How good of a deal is this? Some of you mentioned asking for accessories. Is there anything in particular I should ask for?

Is it F Sport? For F-Sport, this may be an ok price. If not F-sport, then you should get another $1000 off I would think (my opinion of course). Do you have a link to the car?
In the end, it's up to you on if you want that vehicle for any price. Were you able to look at the service history? If the car was serviced at a lexus dealer, any dealer should be able to look it up and print it out for your.
As far as accessories, you can usually get a cargo net and/or spider net and/or gloves for your keys (if the car doesn't already come with those).

From looking at TrueCar prices, I think it's a good price. Not a great price, but still definitely fair. Blind Spot, Parking Sensors, Nav, Comfort Pkg (HID, heated/ventilated seats).
I'm going to assume you're aware that 2013 doesn't have Siri Eyes Free. That feature started with the 2014's I think, so if you have an iPhone, you'll be missing that functionality, but still a nice car. If you haven't experienced Blind-Spot or Parking Assist, you'll absolutely love those features. Heated seats take a long time to heat up (at least in mine they do). My wife's Toyota has heated seats and they burn your butt within 20 seconds. Ventilated seats don't work all that well either (as mentioned in many threads here).
Whatever you decide to do, i wish you the best.

The all season mats are similar to the extremetech that you're thinking of. I have weathertech mats in my car and am glad i have them. You lose the look of carpet, but you save your carpet for resale. Definitely worth it in my opinion.
The all-weather mats on the 2016 look like the following. They'll be similar on the 2013, but not exact.

Pole Position
I would not recommend the Lexus all weather mats. I have a 14 RX and the drivers side mat does not provide enough coverage to protect the carpet. I bought a pair of W-Tech's instead for the front, they work much better. The Lexus mats protect pretty good for the rear & hatch area though. If your lucky maybe they will give you a couple of oil filters which I would maybe ask for. The RX is a top seller and unfortunately you can't get 10k off like a cheap Chevy. Did you look at the service history on the RX you are looking at?
Good luck!
Good luck!

Don't bother with the dealer mats, spend the money on the WeatherTech's-they are the best mats, hands down. Have them front/back/tailgate in both of our cars. Traded in a 10 year-old 4Runner with light gray carpet, pulled the mats the carpets looked like they did the day I bought it.

I did get the Weather Tech mats, and they are pretty good, but nowhere as good as
the Volvo XC70 "tray" mats I used to have which fit absolutely like a glove.
Thus far that's about my only complaint on my 2013...
