  • Okie dissapointment! - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    My wife and I went from a wonderful 07 to this cumbersome 10. The ride is rougher, window noise, a loss of 4 to 5 MPG, and it drives like a truck. The turning radius is greater, the steering is slow to respond, the acceleration is OK but the vehicle seems so big Im afraid to goose-it. We screwed-up! My wife and I both wish we would have kept the 07. The 07 was nimble, quick and fun to drive. The 10 is none of the above. One positive is I have a little more leg room in the drivers seat. The information panels are hard to see and select. Auto wipers did not come with the 10. The bluetooth is difficult to hook-up three layers down in the console. My advice dont trade.

    We traded an ES-350 for the RX. Mostly positive results. Smoother, quieter ride with limited wind and road noise. Hitting some potholes will generate a quick rattle or two, but thats it. Comfortable seats, Recessed Nav screen at eye level and mouse controller a good plus, helps for safe driving. Interior storage much improved, including a cubby area under the center console. Mixed driving gets just shy of 22 MPG using 89 Octane. Plugins a bit awkward in lower console, but that location helps keep the cords hidden and out of sight when not in use. Neither our ES or Limited Avalon before that had side moldings, so no biggie for us. We are enjoying the car.

  • Wonderful piece of machinery - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Had 2004 RX 330... Have MB Mclass 350, and 1998 MB 300 Turbodiesel. The 2010 RX is put together with meticulous craftsmanship.. everything fits perfectly, not one complaint in the first 1000 miles. Shocks are a little stiff with somewhat bumpy ride on New York City streets... but on smooth highway fantastic. Nav is very sophisticated... no lag in signal pickup. Excellent Bluetooth. Disconcerting small digital clock not in direct sight, and gets lost in sunlight. Very easy fold down rear seats. Steering is precise... could not spin Bridgestones (235-60/18) on wet road... have to see traction on snow Dash clear and concise, Nav screen clear and sharp. Fog light indicator light good addition.

  • Fine Product - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    We purchased the 2010 RX350 as a replacement for a Volvo XC Wagon, which was a maintenance disaster. Weve had one previous Lexus. I concur with many who state they dont understand the negative comments. There is little I find fault with in this vehicle. The seats are firm, comfortable on long rides, and cooled. The handling is solid, with excellent steering response. Quality throughout exceeded what I noticed in BMW and Acura SUVs. As for gas mileage, given engine size and performance, Im pleased, averaging 22.5 after 10,000 miles. We did not opt for the nav system, as I couldnt justify the added cost over a plug-in GPS.

  • Acceptable for a 64" Man - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    I have owned the car for 2 weeks now... It was between this car and the Pilot and MDX. I ultimately chose this car because the seat went back 2 inches farther then the Hondas. Legroom for me is very good. I was assured by Kelley Blue Book on YouTube and the other sites that the ride is very smooth and comfortable. It is BUT, on the 5 mile stretch of road I have to travel to my work, which is kind of rough, then I feel it bounce MORE than my Camry.

  • My First Lexus - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Ive owned Toyota products for the past 25 years. I thought that I would give a Lexus RX 350 a test drive, and was so impressed. Im so happy with my purchase, it has all the tech items that one would want - navigation, voice recognition, iPod interface and etc. I personally still cant get over how quiet the vehicle is. You have to keep the sound level down on the radio to ensure that you can hear outside noises. Excellent build quality, great features/options, strong performance and excellent Lexus Customer Service. What else could you ask for in a vehicle.

  • Disappointed in 2010 RX 350 - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Hi. This is my 4th RX 350 and I have to say this one is the most disappointing one. Lexus is getting very cheap with their products and yet charging more for the vehicle. Body molding on doors an option? Please. Ridiculous. Wood panel interior? Where is it? Very little there. Conventional spare gone, donut tire now? Premium stereo? I have to turn up volume to 30 decibels to hear it. Older RX 350 were much better interior and exterior. Lexus fell from being #1 in customer satisfaction, now I know why.

  • Poor engeneering of add-ons - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Switched 2008 RX350 for this one, and I am sorry I did. All futures, which do not work by design, when driving just distract you and make you dizzy. Voice activation system is missing commands 99% of the time. Some genius put microphones in the middle of front console, when they should be in front of the driver. Central console is protruding to much into the car, difficult to see knobs and digits. Navigation system is Ok, but traffic future can not show you overview of clogged roads for better planning.

  • Love my Lexi - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    I have always wanted a Lexus SUV. My husband finally gave in and bought me one. Whatever one I wanted. I chose the 2010 RX350. It is the best vehicle that I have ever owned. I have owned other SUVs and Crossovers but none of them measure up to the Lexus. Gas mileage is great, smooth ride, feels like Im riding on a cloud. Very satisfied with this car. It took a few days to get used to it, but Im glad I decided on this vehicle.

  • Feel the LUV in my new SUV! - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    This is my 1st experience driving a Lexus and I do not regret my choice. The day I picked up the car it was spotless clean and an absolute beauty. It drives with an heir of elegance and has an impressive pick up when you need to move! It is spacious and roomy, handles curves very well, headlights are awesome. The alleged "engine noise" is minimal and not as bad as others claim. I actually like all of the interior features but wholeheartedly agree that the position of the outlets is plain inconvenient. The fact that you cant use the nav while in motion isnt a problem if you have the destination assist feature.
