That white interior will look good for a week or two.

I believe it is. Birch is a VERY light gray and I think it was just the way that particular camera displayed it. I can’t imagine they would go back to white interiors.

Im interested in figuring out if the back bumper can be body color matched. I hate the silver look as it stands out and looks cheap.
Worst case I'll get it painted black

Base price for every model is showing up now at https://www.lexus.com/models/RX. There's also a price list of all the options. The "build" page says coming soon.

One small thing to note is that the options list says "heated and ventilated rear seats" is an option for Luxury and F-SPORT performance trims. The brochure shows this option available also on premium+ trim. Not sure which is accurate.

So the adaptive cruise control needs the $620 traffic jam assist package to be able to function in stop and go traffic?

Will probably be more than a year before you can get a custom ordered car, with the specific options you want. Otherwise, it's whatever they build - take it or leave it. I thought wireless charging was standard, as opposed to $75.

Wireless charger is standard on all but the base trim.

That 360 camera is not too good. And its $800? HUD system and button discipline looks good, however older buyers are going to have trouble understanding context specific button controls.

Pretty sure that other reviews have shown different perspectives of the 360 degree camera, I'm guessing ole Doug just missed understanding how to use it.

I MAY have this function confused with the Toyota Crown's 360 degree camera system, but it looks identical to the same system Toyota has had in use since 2019 model year, just a higher resolution camera now.

from reddit:
It's weird, in reverse or in drive at low speeds it's a normal 360 camera. It's just when you're in park that it switches to egg mode.
And unrelated to that...
cinematic video of interior and exterior, no audio, high quality camera.

If those production ratios posted earlier for the hybrid are true, I am betting that there will quickly be a 1+ year wait for the 350h - Lexus has underestimated demand for it I think. I told my dealer I am sticking with the gas engine for my reservation, but only because I don't drive that many miles per year.
