I took a 2016 RX 450h for a test drive over the weekend, and discussed typical configurations with the sales guy. I am interested in the upgraded Mark Levinson audio package with the 12.3-inch Nav. I was told that it would be a special order because the dealers are not getting the hybrids with that package. I was also told that they are not offering the Panoramic View Monitor option with the hybrid. I see the regular RX 350 in inventory with such things, but no hybrids. Obviously the hybrids are fewer in number right now with the lower gas prices.

So, am I being misinformed? Is there hope for an RX 450h loaded with the premium audio, panoramic view, and the heads-up display showing up at the dealers?

Thanks!

 

Option configurations are subject to change early in a new model debut but 2016 RX450h's
being built for the Central Area (not Florida) are all coming through with "NM" Mark Levinson
& "12.3 Nav for $1510 and "BP" Panoramic View for $800.
"GF" Heads Up Display for $600 is not part of the customary build and would involve a special
order.

 

They are full of poey...just trying to sell you what they have or what they are getting. Special order it if you want it bud.

 

I doubt you will find any fully loaded 450h units as the price would be getting up into the $70k and above range. I owned a 2014 450h and I just could not get over the continuous tranny. Was poo to me.

 

CVT aside, the vehicle loaded up as I would want it shows an MSRP of $62,445. Inventory near me shows models at just above $60k, so it's not much of a leap.
