2009 Lexus RX 350/Quick Drive

[gobeavers135246]

2011 Is by far the best. You may not like it at first, but one step inside, it's the best car in the world.

[tom11zz884]

@gobeavers135246 best car in the world...lol

i guess if you like cushy soft cars

[oxzgen0525]

this car is not 2009 RX!!

[tom11zz884]

@oxzgen0525 It is a 2009 model dude..the Pebble Beach edition was a 2009 model.

[subzero92MK]

really nice!i like it

[texasoperastar]

The all new Hyundai i45 is better than this Lexus!!

[ThinkerMister11]

@texasoperastar

hahaha. nice joke.

[MeInTheNewWorld]

I know that this car is really great performance and comfort wise and it also is pretty much as perfectly built as technology can let us but i could never get around to "liking" the RX, it just feels so bland and so dainty.

[wwerules7991]

HATE IT! Rather have Volvo XC60 over this thing!

[Seanbbn]

i've seen the pebble beach like one or twice... do any other lex models have a special edition?

[DragonsKing91]

u must be blind, what do u consider luxury? a kia? rofl

[Seanbbn]

@DragonsKing91 no.. i consider a lexus luxury... maybe a bmw too. now what the fuck are you talking about? there aren't any kias here asswipe.

[coolsun888]

i have yet to see a pebble beach edition on the road, rather than all the basic 330/350s

[ILVRACN]

Besides the Lexus badge I don't see what makes this a luxury vehicle.

[YeuLaKho]

i would love to have 1

[skyfaze]

Efemef is clearly a retard when he doesnt even spell infiniti correctly and stupid comparison.. fag

[MrUnKnOwNM4]

Loll This guy know a lot about cars by comparing a fuckin BMW M6 . Hello??? lol the fuckin Lexus is like half the price

[Efemef]

No Lexus, neither Infinity can compete with a BMW X6 M

[happyboyy8k]

because you pay extra pennies for the X6 M too lolz

[TheFruc008]

my mom owns a rx 350, we bought it with the all that extra stuff, and it's great!

[ThaChingster]

Me too. I dont like the fact that there isnt an entertainment system behind each seat in the back. Theres only 1 dvd player ): Me and my sister wanna watch different movies

[happyboyy8k]

I LOVE LEXUS

[68hinduhammers]

this is a chick car.

[DaminoLordXL]

Agreed. The RX350 is hideous as well, but driving one can get a homie a lot of pussy.

[Seanbbn]

yeah u two are complete idiots

[noobdrummer69]

i drive one. and i bet mine is faster than your car.

[RokisFL]

Wanna compete w. my BMW M5 E60?

[Seanbbn]

@RokisFL you don't have an m5 e60

[122113314747]

the best car ever!!!

[speedmaster001]

have a Lexus RX350 sit next to an Infiniti FX35 and you would know what real beauty is. The FX has a beast of an engine and has more safety features and electronic stuff in it that it actually driving with a computer on your passenger's seat correcting you if you are about to make dangerous errors...

[MARDAMKIT]

She was lookin' kinda dump,

with her finger & her thumb,

in the shape of an "L",

on her forehead.

Sorry, I just can't get over That badge - what were they thinking.

[Jerrytanwei]

i won't advice any one in Singapore to buy that unless you are going to Malaysia often.

just a waste of money.

[drewbie0706]

This is not the new model being built now...this is last years model (2009)...the 2010 model can be easily spotted by the cut groove up the bottom of the rear doors...but more simply spotted by the round gas cap cover instead of the square one...

This model is not being built anymore but some are obviously still in dealers inventory due to the economic downturn.

[122113314747]

yes u are right but are almost the same..the new and the ''old '' one...the difference is in 10 hp...

[KPKonliner]

some videos said its 2010 !

[Harley04]

2010 only in USA, you can still see the rear wiper in this video, the latest model, it is hidden up in under the rear window spoiler

Same model, built in Japan, available in Australia now, called 2009 model, about $110,000 AUS loaded, top of the 5 levels is Sport Luxury, with Mark Levinson sound system, navigation, 10 way power seats with exit assist, adaptive radar cruise control, heads up display, bluetooth, smart credit card key, 4 years, 100,000 klms warranty, however you can get side steps

[KPKonliner]

why's the toyota version cheaper ? although the toyora version has the same features

[EliteDeforce]

He thinks $49K is a lot for a Lexus? Wow.

[simmyludilo]

what a dumbass XD

[movieman730]

wow my mom drives a lexus gx470 and she got it fully loaded and that was like $60K and there saying the RX is expensive....pssh.

[steve9509]

yeah 49k is alot for that.

[ALECOSUECO]

49k?! cheap as hell if you compare to my country Sweden. That car costs about 100-120k here. You're lucky living in the US

[EliteDeforce]

Wtf? EX is in a completely different segment!

[iCheckVtec]

now that toyoda's son is owner of toyota now and he's pretty young, expect more aggresive designs starting next year

[italy430]

thank god! they got hte refinement/reliablie/build quality down. just needs that sporty edge to it and it'd be awesome and i wouldn't think twice about owing a toyota

[TroVirus]

the narrator at the end of the video sounds like he's stoned

[02camry]

The RX Comes standard with leather, moon roof, and power adjustable steering wheel... Infact, every Lexus does. Cloth however is optional on the ES 350

[jhareth54]

It comes with leatherette.

[09acuratsx]

this car does not come standard with leather or a moonroof. if you read the options you'd know that...

[02camry]

The brochure says leather, moon roof and a host of options are standard. The only Lexus models with an optional moonroof is the IS F. And all Lexus models have leather standard now.

[Stevens2495]

and no my friend has one without leather.

[radioman521]

its also got the same engine as the 2008 highlander

[cristicharisteas]

I have a RX350 and a Volvo XC90, and XC90 is much better than the Lexus...my opinion

[viclam]

all RX come standard with leather...i have one i would know

[09acuratsx]

just because you have one doesnt mean they all have leather. not all of them have leather. yes most of them probably do come with it, but its an option

[Stevens2495]

it looks good but,

the new one looks great.

[redsfan4ever]

i own a bicycle...

[tanzie002]

lol, i don't even own a bicycle! i don't have anything! :D

but i will have a car as soon as i finished college! :D

i hope so! whew!

[phodacbiet101]

whats he talking about...leather seats are standard in the rx models.

[squid2j2]

all lexus,acura,infinity standard models come with leather seat so idk wth this guy talkin about

[FriedBullet99]

i love the dashboards of the lexus... i also like how theres alot of space between the passanger and the windsheild... (a dashboard that goes far back).

[dasgtr]

the RAV4 makes more sense in usability and 'cargo space', its also better overall

[iceolate]

great family car. I have an RX 330 and it runs extremely smooth.

[Knightzo]

Does anyone thinks that this car is worth buying based on its design and performance? I want to get an extra car since winter is coming. My SLK350 isn't that suitable for winter.

[FireOFK]

this is a very good car. but I would say wait for the 2010 even tho the current model is really good but the newer one is nicer inside and out. I had a chance of seeing one few weeks back the 2010 its very nice I won't tell you how and where I saw it but you would like it i'm sure and the quality is exceptionally good

[mstt1010]

You saw1? OK, Well, the new 1 will be shown at the LA auto show, this year.

[Knightzo]

Looks like I gotto wait for some time till the new one comes out.

[FireOFK]

you should I have seen the 2010 in and out and its really nice, you won't regret waiting few month it'll be here soon :)

[chewchewg]

I hate the dash... they look so cheap

[guynpip4ever]

i wont trade my veracruz for this?

[InfinitiGPower]

It's not sexy. It's sex.

[RMede89202]

The Navigation package costs that much because it comes with a Mark Levinson Audio system as well!!!

[mstt1010]

what is, power telescopic steering?

[FireOFK]

its like a little electric joistic that can adjust the steering up down in and out anyway you like and it can be set in the memory that means when you drive you press the memory button for your setting and it will adjust everything automatically they way you like it and when your wife for example want to drive she can have a different setting for her so when she presses the second setting the adjustment automatically will adjust to her desired setting, and that goes for the seats and mirrors too

[mstt1010]

Went to the dealer to check this car out, The sales guy told me, rarely guys buy it! And I am not surprised, I rarely see a guy driving,

I never thought of this but some1 told me, if you drive this car people might think your not straight LOL, I never thought about it...

[lakers0829]

this is a GIRLS Car come on I hope no man drives this

[warmhotman]

its Really GIRLS Car

[dethman263]

im a dude and I have the 350... nice interior, really great throttle response, MUCH better than the RX400h throttle response, which I have tested.

Too bad theres really no aftermarket for this car. I'd slap in an injen intake and a turbo. Should come standard with a V8 like the GX series...

[InfinitiGPower]

BMW and Mercedes are for little girls who only care about badges.

Lexus RX is the first crossover SUV that has defined "luxury" crossover SUV.

[Knightzo]

I dun really agree with you. Mercedes Benz and BMW are not for little girls. They are considered as luxury cars like the Lexus RX.

[mstt1010]

I agree with you, no matter how good this car is, and how good the next gen car will be, since I've already driven the bmw X6 inline 6, I don't think I can go with this RX anymore...Btw, what car do you own?

[Knightzo]

When is the LA auto show gonna be held? I'm looking forward for the 2010 RX as well.

[mstt1010]

I am not sure, but I heard this year, I think next month. Are you planning to buy1? I suggest atleast once, go and test the x5 and x6,

[Knightzo]

Hmmm ..... good question. I've gotto ask my dad about that whether can i buy it or not. But winters coming, my SLK is a little hard to handle under those conditions since 4matic is not included. When will it come to Canada?

[mstt1010]

The new RX will be shown tomorrow!

[TheJabHattEnt]

Near the beggining, when it was almost dark and all you could see was the grille, it reminded me of the first generation RX.

[rimjay]

i thought that EXACT same thought man!

[02camry]

All that stuff is STANDARD except the Navi

[shawtiee1085]

if it doesn't come standard with leather, what does it come with?

[02camry]

Leather lol

[shawtiee1085]

no he said leather is not standard. i was was wondering what it came with

[02camry]

I know. It was sarcasm in lowest terms

[shawtiee1085]

do u kno?

[02camry]

Lol, he probably got it mixed with the ES 350. That's the only Lexus that I know of that offers a cloth interior. Either that, or he meant perforated leather doesn't come standard... Idk

[TheJabHattEnt]

ES comes in cloth? I should look into that!

IS also comes in cloth as well. Unless you mixed those up.

[02camry]

Yes, the ES 350 and the first generation IS 300 comes with cloth. W

[02camry]

Yes, the ES 350 and the first generation IS 300 comes with cloth. Well, the first Gen IS comes with leather, and Suede inserts. The Lexus ES 350 Uses the cloth found on the upper 2007+ Camry XLE 4-Cyl. models. And I think the Hybrid also... I'm not sure. But it feels great

[TheJabHattEnt]

But I'm also pretty sure the latest generation comes with cloth, and you order the leather package, or other packages. I live in Canada, maybe it's come value thing for us.

[02camry]

Well, I', not so sure about Canada's options. I know that down here in the US, Leather comes standard on every Lexus model.

[xlilcutie93x]

Standard comes with leather, he just made a mistake. But then again, the lowest trim in Canada is 4x4 and in the usa its 2x4.

[shawtiee1085]

oh thanks

[guynpip4ever]

its just buying merely for the name.

[thepeopleshero]

This reviewer is good but why does he always look like he has a stiff neck? lol

[tomhuu]

why r u reviewing a car that will cease production in about a yr or so..

[MisterTiberius]

much better inflections in your voice this time, and a great report. i used to fall asleep when i heard your voice before mike =P

[chrisw40]

thanx butt pirate without your constructive criticism i wouldnt know what to do.

[chrisw40]

ugly way better cars and suv for the money looks almost exactly the same for the last 9 years.

[stairscout]

POS Toyota the Buick Enclave is better

[igotthewhip]

"it's not too difficult to put bags into it"

I think we all know how to put a little bag into a giant trunk, thanks. Next time buy some toilet paper at costo to show off the trunk size.

[CndDood]

hes talking about how high the bumper is, i mean if the bumber was high, it would be hard to lift the bag into the trunk.

[igotthewhip]

what suv in this class(or any class) is too high to put a bag into?

[abercrombiebabe140]

i like this car, expecially the wheels and the charcoal grey color. though i would never pay 2600 for the nav system, but leather seats are a must!

[thecarexpert18]

hey my uncle wants this car

[ronaldkamphuis2]

it's not that cool

[mokos23]

shouldn't the RX350 be compared with the Infiniti FX35 and Acura RDX instead?

[TheJabHattEnt]

I agree with the FX35, but it should be with MDX since it's a midsize. EX and the RDX is too small, the RDX and BMW X3 are right now in a class of their own, being joined by the Audi Q5 and more to come.

[davewhodavedunn]

did they take the OLD previous lexus 350 gille and put in on this one? hmmm weird...

[Oni140]

I think this is the Pebble Beach version; you can tell by the wheels and the weird grille

[jojo0827]

ummmmm..... they said that in the video.... i think its obvious

[Noejr10]

Lol

[Noejr10]

OR you can tell by looking at the Emblem saying its a Pebble Beach version.

[xSenorPwnagex]

i dont think theyve ever done a car that HAS a high life height for the trunk
