Default New RX Owner

Hi Everyone,

Picked up my new 2025 RX350 AWD Premium Plus yesterday. First Lexus for me, have owned several Toyotas over the years. So far am loving the experience except for the learning curve on the tech lol. Look forward to participating in the forum!

Nothing is prettier than the Florida sky. Congratulations on your RX. A cool accessory that is so functional allowing big things and things you don't use alot to go under the tray keeping the top portion organized.

Thanks! The center console organizer is already ordered and should arrive tomorrow from Amazon. I took one look at that cavernous hole and knew I needed one.

above sticker for the turbo or hybrid? I'd run away from that dealer in either case.

I went to a dealership 90 min away because they use the Lexus Plus sales model and dealers near me are all putting on dealer supplements for thousands. It also happens to be the highest volume Lexus dealer in the US. I paid MSRP, no dealer add-ons, no dealer fees except for tax and a $59 DVM electronic filing fee. I saved at least $1,500, made the drive worth it. My local Lexus dealer can service it.

Good luck with your purchase!

Over MSRP for a NON Hybrid? Around here (Houston) even hybrids aren’t going over MSRP.

If there is a particular car in the NY area you are interested in, let me know and I can ask my dealer contact at Orange County Lexus in Middletown to see if they can beat the pricing. Often NY dealers swap cars amongst each other. Wouldn't hurt to ask, although Middletown may not be too convenient.

I hope the Mrs is feeling better.

That should be 10% off msrp especially if it's a 25 leftover which it will be soon.

should be and is are two different things.

dealers just don’t have cars here .

just about everything you see marked stock is on hold or sold but not removed yet

even the one i put a hold on still shows stock

Not being a wise guy, just genuinely curious....What is this based on?
