Picking the exact same one up Tuesday/Wednesday. CPO 28k mi 34,999. It’s mint. What a find.

[@greatawakening9185]

Was this out the door or before taxes?? Just trying to gauge

[@brentshannon5048]

@@greatawakening9185 before. Blahhh

[@Shong37597]

Same here! I got mine with only 9k miles but $38k. Fairly used car so be it. 2017 year. Good find!

[@dcpc08161992]

I really enjoy watching this review. Loads of information. Thank you!

[@Shong37597]

Thanks for the great review! I just purchased CPO 2017 same model/option but different color. But didn't get a chance to have a tour with dealership people. Now I can finally play with my car after watching your review! Thanks again!

[@CarConfections]

Glad we could help and congrats on your RX!

[@lryoung17]

This truck has such an elegant vibe.

[@ulannola6729]

Great review, thank you

[@etherlords88]

which exact trim this was and what package it had installed and at what price it was sold for?

[@raymelendez6525]

What models have the mark Levinson sound system ?

[@ericevo8]

I just watched the ENTIRE "Purple" add. Not sure why, but it definitely was entertaining. I think I want a new bed more then a new Lexus now.

whats the in premium package and luxery package in lexus rx350 2017 model

[@user-zh4ew3qk5i]

thanks for the video !...love this car ..last day i saw a video about RX ..the guy said the trims mad from plastic and it looks like aluminum " on the steering wheel -doors ..." ..and you said mad from aluminum ..what do think ?..hop that the car got rear wheel and high performance engine..but over all it's nice car !..thanks for introducing this video ! you guys realy do good job !

[@CarConfections]

The trim pieces are real aluminum to the best of my knowledge (they certainly look and feel like it). Thanks for watching! We are glad you liked the video!

[@dcharizard91]

I can confirm it's silver painted plastic made to simulate metal for sure. Only the radio and tuning knobs are metal. نواف محمد

[@tropicalstorm339]

I can confirm you're just trolling...

[@chingerelganzorig9284]

Like! You guys have bright future behind you. Why not become big automotive journalistic company one day.

[@samsonokoro5036]

I thought the Es was the highest selling Lexus model in the States? has the rx overtaken the es now? I don't have worldwide figures though

[@CarConfections]

In the United States the RX has sold 84,624 units this year while the ES has sold only 47,963. It may have been the best-selling Lexus in the past, but now the RX has definitely taken the top spot. Thanks for the comment!

[@samsonokoro5036]

Car Confections ok didn't know that. Thanks for the info, I know the es was the best seller for years

[@kevinmcguire5696]

Any difference between the 2016 and 2017 models?

[@CarConfections]

Nothing significant was changed. Atomic Silver is now available, F-Sport's get a standard heated steering wheel and can be had in FWD configurations (previously only AWD) and Lexus Safety System + is now standard on all models.

[@dcharizard91]

Kevin McGuire Besides the new color (atomic silver), there is the addition of seat belt monitor (indicates whether rear passengers have seat belts fastened beneath the driver's temp) and rear cross traffic alert has automatic braking now (so when it senses a car approaching, it will automatically brake when no action is taken).

[@ChuckTownRC51]

Pretty sure the base RX doesn't come with roof rails.

[@akila219]

does the info center has both the apple car play or android auto?

[@CarConfections]

+akila219 It has neither. Lexus does not have Android Auto or Apple CarPlay in any of their cars right now. Thanks for watching!

[@teteyscott123]

You should probably blur the parts that show yours or others phone numbers

[@dcharizard91]

Light colored carpets for the floor seems like a bad idea...I wonder if Lexus provides black or light grey floor mats for that interior.

[@jai7184]

Yes dark floor mats

[@alwayne5932]

Yeah dude..believe it or not I’ve been in other competitors interiors before and I tell u Lexus do have some of the best interiors no lie..lots of them screaming luxury but there interiors looks crappy

[@amadonavarrete8609]

I like the front grill it look like angler fish mouth

[@kaiviti2013]

I know to each his own...and for me this is Ugly. Front looks like aimless rebel teen then matured elegance. With all the excessive the edges it looks gaudy. This is the new trend.... All the auto makers are in a mad rush to bring out the most swoopy/edgy cars. The down side is significantly reduced outward visibility. I test drove this and you feel claustrophobic sitting inside...but hey you will look cool from outside i guess ! Also rear passengers will very likely hit their head in the pillar while getting out from rear if you forget to bend your head thanks to the swooping pillar. I think the only other vehicle that outdoes RX's gaudiness is the new Nissan Murano. I opted for Subi Fozzy which i know is not in the same luxury league and has "boring" design but boy you fee like in a fish bowl with excellent visibility. And its just oozes practicality with one of the best AWD systems available. This is all something that is lost on the Millennial Generation of today..

[@graphguy]

Serious what design engineers came up with the this awful exterior front end on all the Lexuses? Great quality cars, but hideous that I would never buy one.

[@isaacpark5276]

I don't like this car I have it but when my parent press the accelerate button it won't go fast

[@KhanhLe-ib2po]

Isaac Park you don’t need to like the car, you need to go and do the homework

[@josephstalin4202]

pk_infinite accelerate isn’t a button lol learn your English

[@isaacpark5276]

infiniti is better
