Good video, Kirk! I remember back in the late 80’s or early 90’s when I saw very first Lexus RX300 commercial on TV. The RX was bold and revolutionary back then and it’s been continual “Kaizen” ever since! The biggest change are the perception of the RX as it was seen only as an soccer mom’s SUV but this current model still being soccer moms suv is now mutually qualifies as performance oriented car for enthusiasts too with F-performance. Lexus IS bending backwards to satisfy customers and it shows and that is the meaning of a true success in any business.

I love my 2018 RX 350 F-sport. Although this new generation has some noteworthy (and necessary) upgrades, I plan to keep mine for a VERY long time and drive many miles in it (something you can actually do in a Lexus if you take good care of it). It's good to see the direction Lexus is headed in, however, which gives me hope in the appeal of future RX models when I might consider getting a new/newer one.

It's definitely louder than the GX.. BTW I think this is your hottest look Kirk

People say there is a family resemblance between myself and my elder brother. But I am still the Rx F sport.

After my lease is up in June 2022, and if my finances call for it, I REALLY want a Lexus RX or GX. Watching this video again really made it hard for me to choose between the two. I almost bought a GX twice. Both have their highlights. Never cared for the F sport package until the redesign of the RX, and all the extra stuff since makes me really want the F sport! Maybe GX for me, RX for the girlfriend? Who knows ;) If they made an RXF (which they need to), it’s a done deal. I won’t care the cost. Please compare the ride quality of the RX to an F sport to a non-F sport please.

Yo Kirk. Like your channels. Just saw this doing research. What should I get very soon. This same RX F sport model used with the triple beam headlights and way better looking backlight design that’s not shown on this one. Orr for $3-5K more a NEW 2023 4Runner either TRD sport or TRD OR Premium. chance to get last year of this insanely long generation new and keep forever and be all weather confident. There’s a few available out here. I’d keep all stock tho. No crazy off roading. 4Runner has legendary Japan build quality tho can last forever but bad gas mileage, top heavy not much luxury. The RX Fsport w triple beam lights makes exterior looks insanely cool. Made in Canada tho but decent quality and also NA all gas so can still be a long term vehicle. Handles better in roads. AWD but not as capable as 4Runner. 99.5% street driving anyways. RX has way better interior and better gas mileage even w a V6 like the 4Runner. What say you?

This car is super comfortable but there are things still missing such as Traffic Jam assist, Parking Assist (self park), full digital speed display.

Traffic Jam Assist available on BMW x5 with Advance Driver Assist Package. Basically, there is a camera at speedometer screen detects driver’s eyes, if the eyes are open, he doesn’t need to touch steering wheel, steering wheel turns by itself at curves follows the car in front. No brake or Acceleration from the driver needed. Self park takes longer than human, but it’s good to have. Just like 360 view camera, now I can’t live without it. With this price range, Lexus should advance it’s tech a bit more.
