well, looking around february to buy a brand new rx330, my question is how much does everybody pay for regular maintenance(oil change)? is the 2007 model have the coach leather in them?(ive been told by the dealer that it is, or was he pulling my wifes leg since she was using one of her coach purses at the time of looking at the vehicle), will the look of the rx change in 2008 or anytime soon? sorry for all the questions just concern about it...it will be our first lexus...thanks for the help...

well, i can pay usually from $150 to $400 depending on what needs to be done. If your one of the do it yourself kinda guy, it actually doesnt cost that much outside of the labor for parts. This is every 5K miles btw

From what ive heard, the RX no longer has the coach leather, that only came with the Coach Leather Edition vehicles, limited edition. WIth that said the new LS is suppose to have coach leather, so maybe its a 2007 thing? not sure, but dont get your hopes up. Either way, what difference deos it make, leather is leather

The RX will go through a design change as a 2009 model. The new design will probably be released some time in 2008 but will come out as a 2009 model, meaning im guessing that it will be on sale near september of 2008. however, that is two years from now.

hope this helps

Oil change and tire rotation run me about $90. Of course I could have this done just about anywhere but the free loaner makes it much easier for me.

My Lexus salesman told me that a larger (to accomodate "Lexus class" third row seat) wheelbase RX was due this fall but has now advised me that it will come out in the spring and have the new DFI engine. Maybe they'll give up, finally, on trying to make a SAFE FWD or front biased AWD SUV and convert it to RWD....

But I wouldn't hold my breath.
