I ordered a car two months ago that included park assist. I have not been informed that it is not available.

as I understand the process you really do not order a car from Lexus--you place an order and the dealer will tell you when one with options close to what you want is on the water.
I would presume eventually you would get what you want but it might take a while. I had 2 dealers tell me Lexus tells them what they are shipping.
I "ordered" the new hybrid and there are certain options I do not want (heads up, rear seat entertainment, park assist, accident avoidance) and certain I do, (sport package, levenson and the full lux and comfort pkg)
We will see--but I have time other than just wanting the car.

Hal56,
I have not found a dealer able to order me a hybrid yet. They are telling me I might not be able to order until July and may not receive the car until 2-3 months later. What were you told by your dealer?

Any thoughts on the Mark Levinson compared to the upgraded stereo system. Has anyone heard both?? Is it worth the extra $$.

I was told that the dealer is "preferencing" the car, whatever that means, but it will have exactly what I ordered with minor additions like mats and wheel locks, and that it will take 3 months to get it. It sure didn't sound like the dealer gets a car when one close to what he wants happens to show up.

Hi cameron41. I can only say that the new upgraded stereo sounds a lot better than the 2005 Levinson. I really notice a big difference. Mike

Although I bought the 2010 RX 350, the Sales Mgr. just informed me that he drove a 2010 Hybrid this week. Seems it was the only one in town. Didn't go into detail as to wheather they are available other than he had driven one. When I ordered mine, I was told the Hybrid wouldn't be available for at least 2 months and that was at the beginning of Feb. I don't put too many miles on so I opted for the gas version.

I was told that due to the economy most of the 2010 RXs coming in do not have all the features. I saw a few of the lists and took one with the Luxury and Comfort packages but could not get the options you want at this time. Also we noticed that the Heads Up Display was coming in with the cars with just the Premium packs but not the Luxury or Comfort packages yet. They say it is because they want to keep the price down. I am happy with mine but it is missing a few of the advertised neat features. I do like the side mirror camera.

hi Mickey34. can you comment something on the hybrid vs non hybrid. Is it worth the extra 5-6k dollars? I figure it will at least 6-7 years (assuming about 15k miles /year) to break even the extra money. is it worith it? and what about the maintenance cost for a hybrid vs non ? I put on apprx 14k/ year and lives in so cal. thanks
