  • RX remains about relaxation, not exhilaration.

    Sep 03 '03
    Pros: Material quality, design, comfort, car-like feel, interior versatility
    Cons: Power only adequate, no FX35 in the handling department, no third row, some features gimmicky

    Summary: Few people take SUVs off road. Instead, they want them for their high seating position, cargo and people hauling abilities, and rugged (non-minivan) image. At the same time, conventional SUVs’ ponderous handling and rough ride, due to their truck ... read more

  • Luxury Utility Vehicle: This Ain't No Jeep

    May 16 '05
    Pros: Complete Luxury, Great On-Road Manners
    Cons: Limited Off-Road Abilities, Price Tag

    Summary: Ask anyone. After driving Japanese imports for a couple of years, it is nearly impossible to drive anything else. Surely, luxury-level European cars have its own appeal and taste, but Japanese cars seem to have the impeccable fit and finish that even the ... read more

  • Stylish, comfortable, adequate power, must have Nav system and a pleasant owner experience

    Mar 07 '05
    Pros: Stylish, comfortable, adequate power, reasonable utility; Japanese reliability
    Cons: Typical SUV cons: gas guzzler, heavy car, body roll

    Summary: We needed a family car and my wife refused to drive a van. She also wanted luxury and I demand reliability. The Lexus RX330 satisfies my wife’s desire for a luxury SUV, and my requirements for a reliable family car. CROSSOVER SUV By no mistake ... read more

  • Not what I expected from Lexux

    Jul 01 '04
    Pros: comfort, ease of loading cargo, sporty handling, updated styling
    Cons: rough and noisy engine, confused transmission, harsh ride

    Summary: This is my wife's car. She turned in her 2000 GS 300 and leased a fairly loaded RX 330 in hopes of having more room for all her "stuff". I have had the opportunity to drive this car during her business travels, as it is nice to take a break from my ... read more

  • Hot Ride

    Jan 15 '04
    Pros: such a nice looking car, smooth ride, durable, good in snow
    Cons: SUVs eat gas (at least it's not premium I'm paying for)

    Summary: In desperate need of an SUV, my parents bought the new RX330. The final decision came down to a choice between the BMW X5 and 2004 Lexus RX330. We bought this car because we figured that we couldn't go wrong, considering the earlier model RX300 was a ... read more

  • The Online Insider Looks at the 2004 Lexus RX 330

    Jan 15 '04
    Pros: Big enough for baby and package carrying duty, enough like a car to feel safe
    Cons: Strangely placed seat warmer for the passenger.

    Summary: The handling of the car is excellent. You are able to drive it normally, without the sluggish feel of the bigger models (the Volvo, especially).Like a few of the other folks who've reviewed this car and other SUVs, the catalyst for buying it was the ... read more

  • Excellent redesign of already good car. Requires adjustable suspension for safe operation under full load

    Jan 06 '04
    Pros: Good vehicle, needs suspension redesign.
    Cons: A couple of cheap looking cosmetic touches. Unsafe full load capabilities.

    Summary: My trade-in for this vehicle was a 2001 RX-300. On the test drive I felt as if I had written a letter to Lexus, describing the weak areas of the 300 and they proceeded to address ninety percent of them. Foremost among the improvements is the ... read more

  • RX is a bestselling car in by opinion

    Nov 12 '03
    Pros: Almost everything, well there are a lot of things in this car
    Cons: Seat Memory dosen't work right well thats an extra thing

    Summary: Price: An expensive car but worth the price. Engine: Fantastic compared to my last car that was a Mercury Mystique. Transmission: The transmission is pretty fast, the gear stick is neat. Leather: Wow! The leather is Xtremely comforta ... read more

  • Worth the money?

    Sep 29 '03
    Pros: Brand, fit and finish, reputable quality.
    Cons: Power?

    Summary: Due to an impending baby on the way, we decided to give up our rusting 1988 Legend coupe and purchase an SUV in its place. We ended up buying a 2001 Acura MDX from my parents when they purchased their new Lexus RX330. See my review on the Acura MDX at ... read more

  • 2004 RX 330 is THE 21st Century SUV. $40,000 of fun for four or fewer.

    Jun 28 '03
    Pros: Latest technology, luxurious, comfortable and safe.
    Cons: Inflexible option packaging makes users choose between ultra-high end audio and performance packages.

    Summary: **UPDATE** Our RX330 is the $35,600 front wheel drive version (an all-wheel drive version is available for an extra $2000) with Performance Package ($5,455), DVD Navigation with Rear Camera ($2,350), and Dynamic Laser Cruise Control ($600). It ended ... read more

  • Old folks car

    Feb 21 '08
    Pros: Beautifully designed interior and exterior
    Cons: Since I'm 26, I feel like an old person when driving it.

    Summary: I've wanted this car for a long time. Probably about 3 years.I'm 26 with no kids. I've finally bought it and while most of my friends are driving sports cars and more sporty SUVs, I feel like an old woman driving this car. Maybe I should trade it for a

  • TERRIBLE climate control system

    Dec 01 '04
    Pros: Good ride and handling, very comfortable seating.
    Cons: Climate control system.

    Summary: I have driven (endured) this car for 15 months (35000 Km). It is a fantastic car to drive, as long as temperatures are below freezing or above 75 degrees. The fan speed is much too high even at its lowest speed, so it always feels drafty and the center

  • Well defined and quality befitting a Toyota

    Aug 18 '04
    Pros: Good Value. Good Finish. Toyota reliability. Very well concieved.
    Cons: Could have used better rear vision. Small annoyances that really add up to little.

    Summary: From purchashing to driving, a remarkable experience. The dealership experience was like no other I had experienced (with maybe the exception of purchasing my MINI over the internet). The dealership (Park Place, in Dallas) was low stress. The salesman

  • RX is no longer for couples with kids

    Jul 17 '04
    Pros: All the extras, the comfort, etc
    Cons: NONE

    Summary: I am a young professional who traded in her CLK 320 coupe for this truck. It has an amazing NAVIGATION with touch screen access which NONE of the German cars have. I also own 2 Mercedes and this navigation blows the other ones away. Also there are many

  • GREAT CAR LOUSY TRANSMISSION

    Apr 11 '04
    Pros: GREAT FEATURES, FINE COMFORTABLE RIDE, GOOD HANDLING, VERY UTILITARIAN.
    Cons: TRANSMISSION SHIFTING

    Summary: QUALITY, FIT AND FINISH ARE FLAWLESS. RIDE, COMFORT, QUIETNESS, GOOD ERGONOMICS AND ABUNDANT ACCESSORIES MAKE FOR A LUXURY AUTO/SUV. LOTS OF ROOM. DRIVING IS SMOOTH, QUIET AND HANDLES VERY WELL. THE BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT IS THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING IN
