Hi all, I'm just about done w/my Audi A4 Quattro. Came close to RX300 2 yrs ago but something was just missing - now that I have an Audi I really know what missing is! I'm negotiating on both the Benz ML 350 & the RX 330. Any comments/pricing suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks jojo |

vehicles are like purchasing paint sealant or any other garbage. Most insurances are covered under your homeowner's/auto insurance policy. Save your money. Jojo, avoid the ML like the plague. Unless you buy two of them so you always have at least one out of the shop. And being on LI, you have a bunch of Lexus dealers around you. You should be able to get a good price by going to multiple dealers |

| Take a look at the unacceptable amount of entries under ML problems and solutions board- that should answer your questions immediately as to whether to buy the ML350 or RX330. Unfortunately, I did not research those boards before I bought mine. You will see my entry under ML 350 serious defect. My car brakes failed and accelerated. The dealer, manufacturer and lemon lawyers say that it has to happen 3 times before I can get any satisfaction. I am going for the RX 330 now. Compare the red circles of the Lexus rated outstanding to the black holes of Mercedes on the Consumer Reports page. That tells the whole story. Good luck. | |

I got an AWD Flint Mica w/ Black Leather Interior. Has Premium Plus Package, 235/55R18 M+S Alloy Wheels/Tires, Heated Front Seats, Rain Sensing Wipers, Headlamp Washers, Navigation System w/ Compass, Rear Back-up Camera, Towing Package, Wheel Locks, and Cargo Mat. Total w/ delivery, processing, handling fees was $44,038 but purchased it for $43,000 (plus tax, reg, & title). Kbb.com's pricing for my zip & specific options was actually $43,002.00 - saved an extra $2!

| Nice color combination - that's what we would have gotten except my last car (Audi allroad) was the same configuration and we wanted something a little different. We went with Breakwater Blue with Light Gray...ours is otherwise very similar except we have the Performance Pkg, but no wheel locks and cargo mat. Congrats and hope that your ownership experience proves to be as rewarding as ours has been so far - not a single problem or complaint. | |
| Anyone asked a Dealer the most popular colors for the RX330? I would think it could be regional. I would think black would be more popular in MidWest or East coast. Can anyone comment on resale of certain colors. Seems that Bamboo is popular. I am considering black with ivory. Most cars I'm not really crazy about in black but the RX seems really nice. Edmunds does put a + or - on colors when they figure target price. So many of the other colors seem quite similar. Thanks for any comments. | |

On another site, a poll of RX330 owners shows that Flint Mica is the most popular exterior color choice, at least in that sample of about 150 cars. The second most popular is silver, and then the black, Breakwater Blue and white are all pretty close. The least popular is the Black Forest Pearl. For interior colors it is running black, light gray and ivory in that order. |

| The color that we sell well more than any other color is Savannah. Then it is silver, breakwater, white, black, flint, neptune, bamboo, and black forest. | |
| RX 330 Bamboo Pearl - I was told that it is a nice color I tried to see/investigate but with no luck even when I was in Florida. Please comment about bamboo pearl. Thanks | |

anyone figure out what inventory tax for and why is it added here in Tx. is sales tax calculated whatever the diff after the trade in and the actual price of the car or calculated from original car price? Thanks |
