Not quite perfect

Having traded my gas-hog GX for a new RX, I am pretty happy overall. The car is comfortable, sufficiently powerful, and endowed with some features that the GX didn't have (such as HID headlamps that swivel, a power liftgate, and fold-flat second row seats). But I am a bit disappointed at the rattling sunroof shade and another rattle emanating from the right front dashboard area. I try to remind myself that I'm getting better mileage to counteract the annoyance. But after driving only 300 miles so far, I hope this doesn't foretell a future of other things going wrong.

Navigation flaws

We bought a fully loaded 09 RX 350 FWD with the Mark Levinson sound system and navigation/bluetooth system. The biggest disappointment has been these integrated system. Most of the buttons on the touchscreen are greyed out while moving, so that no destination or telephone no. can be entered using the screen. Not even by the passenger - who could safely interact with the system. The voice activated system is awful, taking forever to navigate simple prompts. Similarly, while moving, the radio will not display text info about the playing song using the full screen. You can, however, watch the info slowly scroll by five letters at a time on the little radio screen (risking life and limb).

Smooth Ride

Enjoyed vehicle's ride, looks. Unfortunately as a used vehicle, wanted to have mechanic still check it and someone else purchased it at 80,000 miles before my mechanic could fit me in. Research on this vehicle, the Lexus, indicated higher repair costs than most when required, so for me at least, a mechanic's review a mandatory prerequisite to buying used. I might look again or consider a comparable SUB. So many today to choose from with better mileage also than Lexus. Lexus of course, luxury vehicle, so many don't care about mileage who acquire I suppose? Would give car a 5 star except for maintennce costs and concern on higher repair bills.
