Default Pano Roof Availability

I am in the Tristate NJ/NY area and I can't seem to find any with Pano Roof. Anyone know of any dealer that has one?

Strange as it must be a state of dealer thing as most the new RX units I see at my dealer had the pano roof.

I believe only luxury or f sport came with pano roof in the tri-state area. If that's what you looking for, you can check out bayridgelexus.com. They even took photos for their RX in the inventory page.

I test drove a 350 F-Sport with pano roof last month. It was at a dealer in northern NJ. Supposedly they brought it in from Nyack. But I haven't seen any listed in stock with that feature otherwise.

The BYO website keeps the pano roof as unavailable for the F sports but not for the non-f sports

I was able to add pano roof to a 450h F-Sport on the Lexus build site.

The pano roof looks nice and lets in tons of light, but to me they missed on the functionality by not letting it open further than it does. Mine will only open up 3/4 of the way of the front glass and the back glass doesn't open at all.

Very True, Hopefully this was a compromise in regards to the many pano roofs which eventually leak (look at the Volvo XC90 roof troubles, and also bmw)

Panoramic Roof is in all of the top-end, fully loaded packages. you can't get the panoramic camera without panoramic roof, I believe.

I think that goes with any additional feature. We have a pano roof on the x3 we are trying to replace. My daughter loves the Pano roof on that vehicle cause she can look up when it's fully open.

She is still rear facing so until she goes front facing those half pano roofs like the one on the forester isn't going to work.

Can you list some dealers in tristate that you've seen pano roofs? On dealer websites they may have 1 or 2 but not in the options/colors I want. Dealer in bridgewater nj wants me to custom order it.

Try out Rallye, salesmen emailed me a couple with pano roof. Some he had on the lot, and some were in transit
