Hi everyone,
First time post here. My wife and I've been looking for a brand new 09 rx350 model (we both are not big fans of the new asymetrical design on the info panel :D). I am just wondering if anyone knows whether it's possible to find a new model in GTA area. Greatly appreciated!!

+1. It's almost the end of 2009 and 2010 models have been selling for atleast a couple of months now. You will be pretty lucky to find it if at all with your preference of colour/package.

Thanks for the information everyone. I already checked with APA and the reply from them is negative too. :( I think we might shift our target to Acura MDX or Infiniti EX. In regard to the question about asymmetrical, sorry I think I made a typo (should be asymmetrical), I was actually refering to the control panel where the GPS and all other control buttons are located.) . We found the current control panel design are not very easy to our eyes, especially that big curve cutting through the entire panel but again it's just our personal preference. :)

I don't like the interior of 2010 either. I prefer the older generation anyday. Also, I find it awkward that Lexus hasn't put any steering mounted cruise control buttons. The cruise control switch that is popping out of the steering wheel looks really awkward. Lower end Yaris and Corolla models have it the same way - hate it.

Every single Lexus has the exact same cruise control (even the LS). I really like the fact that it isn't on the steering wheel, since I have never use it. The steering wheel real estate is already at a premium with volume/MFD/call/etc.
The 2010 RX has way too many buttons on the wheel as is...

The EX is more along the lines of the RDX... The MDX and the FX are probably more inline with the RX, no? There really is no Lexus in the same segment as the EX (and RDX).

Still I say get an RDX, call it a day :)
