Ron O Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I just dropped off the 400 and they gave me a 330 to drive. What a difference! I immediately felt it in the transmittion and n the ride. I am really convinced that the 400s are considerably ahead in driving pleasure and response to the OLD technology of the RX 330. Forget the fuel savings – I would pay the difference in price just for the pleasure of the driving response of the 400. :D

SW03ES Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I think he's talking about the CVT mainly. I also notice the shifting in my car after driving the Prius. CVT technology is definately the future and feels much more natural than a conventional transmission.

And you can pack it with so much stuff! ;) </sarcasm>

RX400h Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 You could also use the difference in price (around $10k) to buy a pretty good pre-owned Corvette and get an even better driving response. ← ...not for 10K, maybe 15K for a nice 95 C4 Corvette. Of course, if you have about 28K, a C5 like mine will spoil you for life!
RX400h Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Driven the new C6 yet? ;) ← Not yet, but I would love to drive the new Z06 (505 HP). Then again, maybe I shouldn't (cost $70,000)! The nice thing about the C6s is the NAV option. I'm kinda spoiled when I use the RX.
