It's A Lexus Thang by bennb

It's just the way Lexus chooses to send them out ... easier on the factory that way and I think most people want them the way they send them. You could always order one with EXACTLY what you want on it.
 
Go to www.lexus.com and go to BUILD YOUR OWN and it will basically bring them up in your area the way they're sending them out to the dealership.

I'll second the notion for getting the '05. The '04's are first year and they have had some problems, such as the engine trans hesitation drive by wire programing glitch. The '05 has a software patch to fix this.
 
Plus the '05 has 8 way power passenger, vs. 4 way power passenger in the '04. Bluetooth is new for '05 which is packaged with the nav. Now, all packages with hid include the active steering feature. Power hatch and the wood/leather wheel are also standard equipment for '05. All these small things add up and once you factor in not having to deal with first year gremlins... the choice is clear....go '05.
 
We are in the market for a fwd '05 ML/Nav with RSES...ie, all the toys. We are going to wait until the longshoreman strike is over...almost all Rx 330s in the SF bayarea come from Japan, which means they are trucked out of the Long Beach port...there are significant slow downs for Lexus deliveries...there are stuck at the Long Beach port. Once that gets settled...there will be a influx of autos...we'll cut a deal for the Rx then.

We live near Long Beach and have not heard anything about a longshoremen strike. There was an article in the local paper about the cargo backlog but they blamed a lack of productivity from unionized longshoremen as the root cause not a strike. According to the article, the backlog is slowly receding. The bulk of holiday shipments have arrived, vessels have been diverted and more labor is on the docks.
 
The issue is actually more complicated than just blaming the longshoremen. Here is a link to the local newspaper. Search for an article called What's to blame for cargo backlog?

Can anybody out there help with prices on a RX330 in the Atlanta area. I am dealing with two different dealers and one says there are "3" levels of options and the other says "4"?? Bottom line they are quoting about $36,600 for the lowest level FWD with some options. Is that good?

Does time of month effect price of car and interest rates? by dogsambam
Nov 16, 2004 (5:29 pm)
We are contemplating whether to go buy a 05 AWD RX330 now or wait till the end of the month (Nov 29/30). Are we apt to get a lower price and/or more negotiable interest rate on our buy at the end of the month. We are buying, not leasing. I know there is the old tale of the end of the month, but is it really true pertaining to Lexus?
