I take it back about the Brandywine Mica red. There's 2 large pics on clublexus and I think it's quite cool. Maybe not my fave of all, but far superior to the Matador Red, IMHO. The bad news is that, again, Lexus is shortchanging the hybrid owners - not offered for the hybrid. My dealer is saying I can special order it, though, so I'm gonna try. Not sure I believe him, but I'll give it a shot.
To see it, here's the link: http://www.clublexus.com/forums/showthread.php?t=214897&page=9

I highly reccomend seeing the Brandywine mica in person. It looked much redder with less burgundy tones in the showroom light; not what we wanted. They are coming in with the 08 shipments, so should be available to see very soon. Good luck finding your color preference....

The RX350 with navigation has a "cruising range" display. I don't know about the RX400H

I've seen the brandywine mica on the RX350 and it doesn't look like the red colors of either the IS or the GS, although I think those colors look good also.

The regular gasoline version RX's have had issues with the Goodyear tires also, mainly that they wear out between 20k and 25k. Now, a
friend that I work with has a 2005 RX330 and she got almost 40k out of her Goodyears!

I finally saw the Brandywine in person, too. I agree it doesn't look much like that pic - at least in sunlight. In sun it looks much more Brandy than Wine. More of a rust color actually. Not bad - different and kind of cool, but more orange than red. My guess is that in shade it looks redder. I'd give my eye teeth to be able to order one of these in the Nobel Spinel Mica of the LS. If you've never seen that one in person, it's really fit for royalty. 'Course, I could always buy an LS...

Dealer Demo RX 450?

Is there such a thing as a RX450 hybrid?
I think it is really the RX400H. My fatehr-in-law received a quote for a dealer demo, 5,000 miles, fully loaded RX hybrid for $53,186.
I have no idea if this is a good price, can anyone help?

No. They are selling new for around 48K, check out the RX400H forum prices.

The price is probably WAY TOO much. See this link where folks are buying them new for $45k loaded. Why buy used unless you save at least $5k under new invoice.
