This was about turning radius, forgot quoting, sorry

woa I have to test this out.

I just noticed that the bottom of the doors go far enough down to become the rocker moldings. That leaves the area where the back of my pants legs rub as I get out covered. It stays clean so no more marks on the back of my calves. A small thing, but nice to have.

The last few years off 3RX 450h were build in Canada too.

I took delivery of my FSPORT 350 the other day and noticed that there were 2 mystery ports below the air vents: HDMI and USB. Optimistically thinking they could be used to input into my 12" Nav, to my surprise I found that they do absolutely nothing. Neither of them. USB doesn't even charge the phone. I don't have the rear entertainment package, so why install the ports? Removed the panel and they do appear to be plugged in and running wire towards the dash.

Any ideas?

I did a Google Image search for "2016 lexus rx rear seat hdmi usb". The charge socket in the middle is standard on every RX. The USB and HDMI is NOT a genuine Lexus feature. I did find this picture:
Looking at the USB and HDMI port, I'd say someone (dealership, previous owner) installed a Rosen Rear Seat Entertainment System into your car without you knowing. It appears the system is attached to the back of the headrest. Maybe they added the port, but forgot to add the headrest? I'd take the car back to the dealership and have them install a new back plate or get the headrests.

Why do you have non functioning aftermarket parts installed in your new vehicle is the bigger question? I`d be peeved if the dealer decided to install an aftermarket headrest display without my permission or disclosure of the fact before purchase. However If thats something you want or thought about getting down the line, I`d push for the rest of the system installed for nothing, since they already installed most of the system. The only thing I see being a problem, is the probably the lack of fit on the headrests with the factory headrests.

Thanks for the find. It looks exactly like that Rosen kit. My RX just arrived at the dealership 2 days before I picked it up. 64 miles on it. And it's a reputable dealer, so it's really strange. I'm going to ask at service #1, but will be dropping a Beatsonic Nav/DVD bypass in soon anyway so will take a look at what's going on behind the dash and where this wire is running.

Might end up just hooking up the USB to 12v and use as a charge port in the back. As for HDMI... I already use a Samsung 10.1" commercial grade display that has a player built in and an hdmi in so could hook it there, though no idea what for with my 2yr old in the back.

Keep us posted. I'd be furious if a dealer installed (half-way) some aftermarket system without telling me first. But, sounds like you know a thing or two about fiddling with this kind of thing.

Wireless charger? where?

Below console, infrant if "gear stick" on 450h.
Worksop with s6 E and s7 E, just in sharp turn phone can slide out of charging spot (not drop out, just stop charging). But they sre glasd back, dupose it can be expected.

so i finally bit the bullet and got a 2016 RX450h F sport, i had lot of hope for the vehicles, i love every moment driving it. that's all it really matter, i got the vehicles with almost all the options available (except rear seat entertainment).

anyway, here are the list of thing i found totally useless, just my .02 cents in case some of you thinking of getting one, even some of the feature came with the car **** me off more than it should.

1. the "iPhone 5" holder, it doesn't fit any other phone except phone smaller than iPhone 5.. sure the car were release late 2015 but now it totally defeat the purpose
2. S-Flow, really don't know what's the point of that option is, when active it state it only blow driver side, my god that thing is weak, i always have to disable it to cool the car cabin off, pretty much i have to disable it everytime i start the car.
3. 12 inch navi, its really nice to look at, but the UI and the graphic render lag so bad... as a #pcmasterrace the fps **** me off so much, sure it has 3D and all but BMW has them since 2009. and test driven the BMW i3 for 3 days their Navi are almost as big but much much smoother.
4. Lexus remote touch, (whatever they were call), were so much more user-friendly back in my 2010 RX450h, what happened to it? its so frustrating to use, even adjusting the force feedback doesn't help.
5. the navi screen can only view english text, can't view japanese/chinese, etc from music/text message etc, mercedes were able to do those long ago.
6. lane keep assist, its more like a toy than anything practical, it steer your car a bit, the constant beeping keep lexus away from Lawsuit, but also useless, stay away from this option if you were interested in this option, it ask you to keep hands on the steering wheels and it will fight against your hands while you do, it make you a lot more tiring when driving


that's all i could think of right now, there are also a lot i love about the car, but i honestly wouldn't say its a huge upgrade from my 2007 Lexus GS450h, my GS can sprint from 0-60 in 5.2 while getting 26mpg. the new RX, maybe its still in the break in period, average 23mpg, forgot about the 0-60 time, didn't really push it yet, still its good enough for my daily driving needs.

i really hope this is not my last Lexus i am going to get, their resell value weren't as great as back then, but time will tell

Which models have the power folding rear view mirror and which model has the panaromic bird eye view??

On the fsports there is a slice of ambient light that glows off the chrome "f" stying on the chrome door accent at night. The outer door handles also have similar lighting when unlocking using fob
