Windshield Problem! Don't buy the heads up display

If you want to buy the RX 350 with heads up display, I suggest you wait. I bought this car in March of 2016 and the windshield has a problem. there is a double vision where the all the lights (cars, traffic lights, street lights) are doubled. The dealer changed it once and the problem is still there. The deal says this is the was Lexus designed the windshield, which is a lie!! I contacted Lexus customer satisfaction team and they believed the dealer without even inspecting the car. I warn you from buying these cars. It has other minor problems too. Such a waist of money. Paid $61,000 thinking that its a luxury car. I think I will go back to BMW and Audi

I hate it

The right side A-pillar is so sloped, it's almost like a horizontal blind obscuring your vision to the right. The rear view mirror is so large and low, it seriously impedes your vision out the front. The lane departure steering wheel shaker is aggravating as hell. Absent these three issues I would like it a lot. As is, I hate it.

Smart balance between comfort and performance

Coming from 2007 RX that we had for a while to 2015 RX that lasted 8 months to 2016 RX. 2016 is a huge step forward, regaining light feel of the 2nd gen, bringing back lovely engine sound and finally having great, deep and comfortable seats. It's not the car that wants to hurry up but it will hassle when pushed with crisp steering feel and much less leaning compared to both models before it. Not sure about all the negative reviews on the net, got to be the grill influence. Get beyond it and it grows on you quickly with smart balance between comfort and performance.

My wife has red and I have beige. Love them both. These are our fourth and fifth Lexus we have owned. We tend to keep our cars a long time. These are probably the best cars we have owned. We have had them 34 months as of mid-February, 2019. This is in spite of the weird grill, which is an obstacle to overcome. At least the 350 is not as bad as the F Sport, with the really hideous grill. Looks like a monster going down the road with its mouth open and teeth missing. Biggest complaint is bad gas mileage. Typically 15-16.

For The Bold And Beautiful

I have owned 5 Lexus thru the years starting with a 1995 LS 400 that I still own now......has 130,000 miles and very little repairs needed thru the years, a car I will not ever give up....the body style in one in its own.....LOVE IT! Purchased the gorgeous infared color 2015 RC 350 F Sport that I absolutely love and plan on keeping. I purchased the first RX 300 in 1999, then a 2006 RX 330, a 2015 RX 350, and now the 2017 RX 350. I have loved them all, though now seeing the older RX models they definitely look outdated. The 2015 is still a looker but compared to the new RX design, is quickly getting that outdated, old egg shaped look. I just purchased a Black on Black 2017 RX 350, I love it!.....The exterior gives the magical, mystical, long, shiny, sleek look of a black panther, still keeping that classy look, More modern, and Sets it apart from all the other SUVs on the road, you always know it is Lexus. This is definitely for the bold, beautiful, and magnificent who dare to be different.......the leaders and not the followers. I didn't think Lexus could top the 2015 Model but they have done it. Got the luxury package and all the upgraded packages as well. The triple beam headlights are a must and light the corners and whole surrounding area when turning remarkably well, like Iv'e never seen before an any car/SUV. The Mark Levinson Stereo system sounds incredible. The interior is still as pretty with the luxury package, and a tad bit more room. Still has the classic smooth ride of luxury. I believe the other auto makers will soon follow and try to compete. I recommend this car but hope everyone doesn't run out and buy one because I love it, there are not many on the roads yet, I love to be different.
