I bought my wife a 2016 with 51,000 miles for $32k, clean title. Use Autotempest. Took about 4 months to find. It's not the F sport, thats a waste of money unless you don't mind. I have all the options that a F sport would have. I have the panoramic sunroof, heads up display, warm and cool driver and passenger seats, heated steering wheel, 360° protection cameras, and the upgraded sound system, and the wide navigation screen, triple beam headlights. The things that I don't have that the Fwould have is the aluminum foot pedals the tachometer on a center screen, the F sport grill/reer diffuser and badging. When I get a chance I'll upload a video of it. You always buy an aftermarket grill, but you won't have the front lip of the F sport. If you're looking for the escort you can get it for the same price but with that much mileage though for the 100,000 miles on it. Again you're doing it for the looks, at that point. You better getting off the one that has the full package on the RX 350 with less miles on it.
@@RaitisRides I've been watching your Chicago auto show videos. I paid a videographer in Chicago to film for me, paid $500 for the day BUT the footage was horrible - very shaky, 1080P and incomplete walk arounds. I'm bummed out. I can't even use it.
@@BenjaminMutuku Their is nothing to be ashamed about ! Upload the footage man because you worked very hard to film it I’ll watch it And I just subbed to your channel
I just got a 2022 RX 350 and loved it. I was debating between the Toyota Highlander and the RX, but Lexus won the negotiation and availability of the car. I got the base model and still has great features that I was looking for. It is definitely a very comfortable ride and spacious. Thanks for this review!
One yr ago, my husband showed me this video and I fell immediately in love with the car. At the time, I had the 2001 RX 300. I said to him, “I’m going to get this car.” Fast forward to July, and I was blessed enough to be able to find one. The colour pops and the interior is so plush and eye catching. Thanks for your videos.
Lori does do a phenomenal job with the camera work. My eyes are never left hoping I see one thing or another. There's never any herky jerky movements. She is the queen of the camera. The editing work is spot-on too. You two have great chemistry and teamwork. I look forward to watching you all well into the future. Thanks for all you do.
Maaaaaaaan Lexus out here bringing that Blackline Edition all through their lineup like Toyota!!! Thanks for the upload here Joe and Lori!!! #RaitisRides #Lexus #RX350 #FSport #BlacklineEdition
I am based out of India and love the content you produce. I know where to skip to get specific information. Love ITTTTTTTTTTTT. About RX this is on my list of potential buy in next few months.
Love these videos! What is so awesome about these videos is the structure of it! Mr Raiti, you first talk about the car, the history of the car, and what is the experience and the interior of it! Keep posting great videos like this! 👍👌😊
Im not gonna lie: This Black Line Edition 350 RX is on my “dream board” of my lotto list. I weekly play considering “hey, somebody’s gotta win, I want it to be ME” and its: this exact edition & color, a black w/white interior RC F w/carbon fiber pack, and a Lunar Rock TRD Pro Taco/4Runner. Gotta have those toys.
Joe and Lori. Thanks for bringing this LEXUS RX 350 to us.( Lori Your majesty thanks so much for all you do!)This car is TREMENDOUS!( SUV I MEAN!)I can totally dig everything about it! Ride on! I will see you guys on another ride.
Best SUV of all! If I hadn't chosen the BMW 6 GT as my next car because I like sporty and spacious sedans with a coupé style, I would have definitely gone for the RX! Greetings from Italy
Is there such a thing as too much black though? Especially with all of the crappy aftermarket stuff and a blackout version being for every single car in existence? I feel like it's lost its charm
Joey bag-o-donuts on point. Nice work sir. Great value for money here. If Toyota/Lexus offered a "full-monty" F-Sport version of this it would be pretty legit.
Hey Joe, Personally, I love the grill. Always have. I also love the review. You and Lori are the best team in the business. ... AND ... I'm afraid to admit it, but I like the flat black plastic on the fenders. As a person who always seems like I get a ding in my fenders right above the tires, I like the plastic there. ... Just saying. ... Lastly... Yes, those chrome pieces should have been black chrome.
Torque: 360Nm Weight: 1994kg Fuel consumptions: 12.5l/100km in city, 9.09l/100km on highway Maximum towing capacity: 1590kg Boot space: 1593l with seats down
So Lexus only updated the tail lights for the F-Sport model... the non F-Sport models get the same tail lights as the 2016+ models. Those updated tail lights look really cool
Love the RX/don't have one, my sister does! Its an incredible vehicle; one of the BEST on the road. If you take care, these vehicles LAST for years. Joe always does a great job on these presentations.....Joe next time in Austin lets tip a few! CCC Austin, TX
I doubt you'll see this comment but congratulations Joe I remember when you had a get together for 50,000 subscribers here it is a few short years later & you're up over 1 million subs! Your knowledge of cars & the inside info from when they started out & a brief summary of the cars history is second to none & I think that's one thing that makes your channel stand out from a lot of the others. I look forward to that especially if I don't know much about the vehicle (to learn) & if I do I like to make sure I'm correct lol. Keep it up Joe 'n Lori ❤️ better than amazing work! 💯👍👍😎🛻💨
Watching and appreciating your reviews from Algeria (northern Africa). I like your enthusiasm about every car, a true petrol head. Keep your good work.
I’ve been looking at a LOT of luxury vehicles, and honestly I love the designs that Lexus has, but I refused to purchase one because it didn’t have a touchscreen or Apple CarPlay for a while. I think the RX is a very nice vehicle… I just don’t like how Lexus will take a while to add technology that competitors already have. The touchscreen infotainment system is a nice upgrade, but it’s still kinda far from reach. There’s also still a LOT of buttons and knobs for a luxury vehicle.. I’d say it needs some sort of refresh, but it’s still functional. The sound system is one of the best in its class, and an even better benefit is that it takes regular gas. I’ve always prided myself on brand new cars, but the price of RXs are pretty steep … overall I think it would be a good buy for luxury, value, and longevity
Yes i am looking into the IS 500 F Sport Performance. But if Lexus does decide to make a RX-500 F sport based of the Artisan Spirits one they made. I will buy it.
This car always looks weird to me in pics and video but it looks really good in person. Looks more substantial and classy when you're standing next to it.
I've been waiting to buy a RX 350, I am an alpha consumer. Don't care one bit for any of the F sport badges, would rather it say RX. It should have panoramic sunroof and I can't stress this enough, this is standard since 2020 for many. Also have been waiting for touch screen and Android auto. Also been waiting for wireless charging.
Joe I used to be a lexus salesperson. You cant be their quality and fit and finish. What do you think about a 3.5 twin turbo in this line?. 400hp and 350 tq sounds good to me.
Hey Joe. Sweet ride. Lexus is always one of the best combination of styling, resale value and reliability. What would be a word you use that's the opposite of ZONK?
This isn’t a true f car but for styling purposes it would be cool if they Lexus added carbon fiber accents to go with that sexy blue color just to give it a more sporty feel
Beautiful suv for comfort, if Lexus really thinks this is sporty well is not, make it rear wheel drive and longitudinal engine then we might call it sporty.
The grille of the Lexus nowadays made me think of a scotty kilmer video where he was talking about lexus having the scouting grille saying "hhhwwaaa" lol
Right but I think at the end of that bar he also said” we Push the big top that shaped like the Kansas chicken snack box” RX is definitely not a G wagon😂
Here’s my opinion. I love Lexus for their reliability etc. If this is a $50,000 us vehicle that means it’s $62,000 CAD where i am. A 2021 BMW X5 here in Canada is around $85- $90,000 to start. So it’s a way different price point but you get so much more in the Bmw that’s for sure. What Lexus IS lacking here for that edition is night pkg similar to Mercedes, a bit more hp/ torque bigger/nicer wheels and get rid of all that chrome otherwise don’t call it a black edition. There is nothing black about this Rx except if I sit in it. Cause I’m black lol.
Myself im from canada in the maritimes... people who buy these vehicles are 50+ and upwards and the tech is reasonable and accustomed to what they have known. Many young people only care about apple/Android and with more tech and stuff, overtime that stuff breaks and costing more to fix and insurance companies love to charge more especially cars with more tech as we generally lack competition unlike the US. Canadian market is different as well and weather is an important factor when deciding a car purchase, if one was out in Western Canada like Vancouver then a vehicle like this Lexus for those that can afford it then sure. However, when you factor in snow like in the maritimes where they use road salt then rust becomes the new problem lol. Me personally I can't afford Lexus anyways but would rather get toyota. With toyota compared to competition their interiors are at best average but their main selling point is reliability as most people only care for point A to point B. That's just my take on it.
It should not be legal for manufacturers to slap a sport badge on their models if it takes 7 seconds for 0-60. I realize it is an SUV but *cough* Audi SQ5 *cough*
*The RX still looks nice, luxurious. The 2016 RX's with over 100,000miles are still going for $30,000 in my area. Still a desirable SUV.*
I bought my wife a 2016 with 51,000 miles for $32k, clean title. Use Autotempest. Took about 4 months to find. It's not the F sport, thats a waste of money unless you don't mind.

@@ElKiwiProductions did you need a new car?
@@JimBobe yes and no. We had a 05' sienna, sold it for $4k...got the Lexus after I finished college
@@ElKiwiProductions probably not the wisest decision but its a nice car at least
i'm sorry, but RX interior is shitty as hell. new highlander has a better quality of materials.

I don't think the interior looks dated, I think it looks classy!!
It does but compared to the gv80, telluride palisade or even a highlander platinum it’s a different stoey
Love Lexus. Joe is the absolute best at describing car or SUV! He goes into detail but also love his sense of Humor

I feel you 😂 they’re just fun to watch but to also gives options in case I do get the money
@@lil.d.6609 many like to watch things they can't afford 😅
If you think you can or can't, either way you are right.
I agree with you on the mirror cap and window trim! It should have been dark chrome or blacked out
I agree that the chrome should be black chrome. You know how I feel about the grill.
Great review as always Joe and excellent work Lori! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I love your channel Joe and your personality fam. You're a good man!
Best SUV of all! If I hadn't chosen the BMW 6 GT as my next car because I like sporty and spacious sedans with a coupé style, I would have definitely gone for the RX! Greetings from Italy
trust me RX is shitty. i own one.
Sedans are more superior for me than SUVs
I agree with Joe. For a Blackline edition, too much shiny chrome.
Is there such a thing as too much black though? Especially with all of the crappy aftermarket stuff and a blackout version being for every single car in existence? I feel like it's lost its charm

Dude, as soon as you posted, i was *ON THROTTLE!*
Now we are talking!
I never clicked on a video so quickly.
So Lexus only updated the tail lights for the F-Sport model... the non F-Sport models get the same tail lights as the 2016+ models. Those updated tail lights look really cool
Agree with you on the chrome window trim ! That black finish would have been a fine touch !

You’ve still got me sold on the 2022 Lexus NX. I’m about to put a poster on my ceiling. 😆🤣
We literally just bought this car like a week ago. I had to watch this video
This car always looks weird to me in pics and video but it looks really good in person. Looks more substantial and classy when you're standing next to it.
Blacked out rims look amazing 👏
Always liked the RX design, but nothing touches the F-Pace SVR you did last week - dream car. Cheers from Ireland 👋
Great video as always. Love the energy you bring!
I personally don't mind there being silvery chrome for the windows, the vehicle looks good regardless imo.
Not just for this car, but for any car, if it's gonna be chrome, it's gotta be dark chrome

Great vehicle..price is not too much..luxury and reliability...nice video JOE and Lori
This isn’t a true f car but for styling purposes it would be cool if they Lexus added carbon fiber accents to go with that sexy blue color just to give it a more sporty feel
They should def add this color to Lexus entire lineup
Joe is so hilarious, never change brother
I have this car and my only gripe is f aport seats are stiffer racing compared to non f sport (which are much softer)
Lol 😆 🤣 that car in front of you was like......shoot!! Lol 😆 🤣
That engine just sounds so good.
another stellar review. OK Lexus so blackline means silver, chrome and puter, got it. sorta how 4 doors are called a coupe by some fools.
I don't think that the panoramic sun roof is necessary because the small sun roof is enough and most people rarely use it. Thanks for the review.
The blue stitching is nice since blue is my favorite color
I’m fine with simple interiors if the materials are good. Definitely needs more black on the exterior though
First thing I'm zonking is the chrome mixed in. Lexus, don't be scared to make it actually 'Blackline".
i'm happy for you that you finally found a hidden wiper :)
I agree to much chrome and I don't like the flat black plastic guards
Loved the review! Thank you!
I am seeking a Lexus RX 350 that is a luxury cruiser. I don't think sporty driving experience when I think of the Lexus RX including RX 450H.
Beautiful suv for comfort, if Lexus really thinks this is sporty well is not, make it rear wheel drive and longitudinal engine then we might call it sporty.
EXCELLENT SALES PITCH - HOPE YOU GOT YOUR COMMISSION
@Paul Sxton UNFORTUNATELY, HIS WORKS SEEMS MORE PROMOTIONAL THAN AN ACTUAL REVIEW
This is a amazing suv lori is doing a great job
Got it and the NX seats are way more comfortable and I would definitely say need a little more power
My 2021 volkswagens 4motion tiguan black edition r line 3rd row delete looks better imo. I even tuned it making over 230 hp and 315 torque
I have an idea. How about they stick their n/a V8 into one of these so we can actually be interested
The grille of the Lexus nowadays made me think of a scotty kilmer video where he was talking about lexus having the scouting grille saying "hhhwwaaa" lol
That great poet Jay Z once said "We don't drive X5 we give them to baby Mama's" every since been looking at them side eye! 😂🤣
Right but I think at the end of that bar he also said” we Push the big top that shaped like the Kansas chicken snack box” RX is definitely not a G wagon😂
Nice car and nice review joe!! We absolutely know why you zonk those rear wipers lol
RX F sounds fire 🔥
A free can of plastidip should be included with all that chrome smh
Great to see even Lexus got their higher end suv they need more performance cars in the lineup
It still deserves the big sales volume in its class
Get an all black out Telluride for that power. And take a vacation
Raiti, we need this view when you are driving a manual transmission vehicle. Gotta see how you dance on the pedals! 😂
If Lexus want to complete with BMW X5, make sure make it RWD crossover with more bhp. Then as a customer I wish Lexus will can make RXF with 5.0 L V8
I love it my boy Joe keep up the work and I love the video lot real true 💯👍
F sport but same engine as the base? They are both v6 3.5? No turbo?
Thank God, I will buy one for myself
I like it but think F badge should be reserved for 300hp and up vehicles
