I would suspect that if you're asking this question then you should NOT be buying an RX330.

Think seriously about that big Dodge SUV with its impressive, MANLY front grille and huge HEMI engine.

RX330's and 300's are like minivans, made for women and/or men that are certain, comfortable, of their station in life.

Otherwise the RX330 is an absolutely wonderful choice.

yes, but there are much quicker cars in the same price range

Sc's competitors:

Mercedes CLK-- 0-60 in 4.9 seconds

http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/coupe/...k55/index1.html

Jaguar XK--0-60 in 5.2 seconds

http://www.fast-autos.net/jaguar/03jaguarxkr.html

Sc430's 0-60 time: 6.2 sec

http://www.fast-autos.net/lexus/lexussc430.html

and GS?

competitors:

Mercedes e500: 0-60 in 5.8 seconds

http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/sedan/112_0403_merce/

Infiniti M45: 0-60 in 5.8 seconds

http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/sedan/...m45/index4.html

Lexus GS430:0-60 in 5.8 seconds

http://www.fast-autos.net/lexus/lexusgs430.html

so your telling me the 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times are reasons people buy lexus'? That doesn't make much sense considering it's not even leading their segment for the most part. There are quicker cars in it's class.

While Lexus makes some of the softest rides available and nice interiors with great mechanical reliability, they are slow! :)

Nobody said that someone is going to buy a Lexus only based on the 0-60 times. You assumed that.......There is a lot more involved then just speed. Realibility, performace, looks, etc..the list can go on forever.

We seem to be confusing speed with "quick".

I have driven my 92 LS just as fast in MT, Browning to Cut Bank, as I have my 911 on the Autobahn.

That's speed.

I care not how competitively either car can go from 0 to 60.
