I am looking to buy my very first Lexus! Have always wanted one since I was little. I am choosing to either go with either the 2024 Lexus RX350 Premium+ or the Luxury trim. Local dealership says they do MSRP and nothing over. From what I hear from people is that toyota an lexus don't sell over MSRP or at least push MSRP up. Is there anything that I should expect while going in to initiate buying this car? Looking for the 2.49% interest December to Remember sales event.
I am leaning towards the Luxury trim because of the better back support and some more features that the premium+ doesn't have. HUD sounds useful. The panorama roof sounds cool, not sure how much will use it. Cooling and heated rear seats and also heated steering wheel. Panorama roof might be hard here in texas with the heat.
For those that bought the RX350 Luxury trim vs the Premium+ and also the premium+ vs the luxury, why'd you choose it? What features or things did you end up not caring for or end up wanting?
Thanks for the feedback! The added cost isn't much differenece for me so sounds better, thanks for that tip. Glad to hear that there's a shade on the pano roof! In Texas the AC seats would help a little bit.
Yeah the HUD doesn't seem like much if the display isn't too far away, but could help me some.
Have you had one with 19" wheels before? The white one I want would definitely show dirt a ton and the iridium color looks nice!
The biggest thing for me is the seats honestly, everything else is a plus!
Now I am leaning towards a hybrid and my 2006 Honda Civic Starter is shot so need to replace that and have it run for 3-4 months, which is what I was told for a hybrid lead time, or just get a gas rx350 Luxury one next week.
I just like the look of the 21's. Makes it look a little beefier. I look down upon those with the 19s ;-)
Also, for the rear hatch, it's important to check the clearance with your garage door so it doesn't hit. Yeah, I did that ;-)
White seems to be the most popular color.
Is it perfect? No. But nothing is. It's comfortable, dependable, great resale, and in my eyes, reasonably priced. I thought I was spending a lot of money until I started shopping around.
I have a 2022, so no direct comparison. But I love the HUD, wouldn't want a car without it in the future. I have a pano roof, but I would gladly pay an exrea $1000.00 to get a car without any sort of hole in the roof. Not going to happen with all the option packaging these days. Porsche is the only manufacturer I've found that will delete their moon/sun roof as an stand alone choice.
After having them in my last two vehicles, I will never own another vehicle without a HUD. The Lexus HUD is rather simple in conparison to some, but still useful. I have no need for the pano roof but it was on the Luxury 350h that was coming in. The 21 inch tires are awesome. They are not low profile, so the ride is nice.

If you're buying the non-hybrid model, don't pay MSRP. There are loads in inventory. I would start by offering 10% off and see where that goes.
You made me go look at the numbers! I agree. They just don't look that way to me. Thanks.
iIt's funny how we've gotten used to big wheels and low profile tires. I remember being astounded the first time I saw a 50 series tire on a 17" wheel and shaking my head at the first 20" wheels I saw on some low-rider. Now 21s are mainstream.

I remember my first Volkswagen Scirocco with 60 series tires I thought I was cool.
RX350 Premium + Vs Luxury
I agree. They just don't look that way to me. Thanks.
