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.
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!
@@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
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.
Watching and appreciating your reviews from Algeria (northern Africa). I like your enthusiasm about every car, a true petrol head. Keep your good work.
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.
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.
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! 👍👌😊
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
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
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
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
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.
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 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
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! 💯👍👍😎🛻💨
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.
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.
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.
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
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?
How do ya’ll feel about the hourglass shaped grill on Lexus vehicles? Kinda reminds me of the new M3 huge nostril grill. Not really a fan personally of either, but maybe I’m an outlier.
*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.*

@@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.
Love the RX! Thanks for bringing out to the channel Joe!
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
You are so awesome! Thanks for your great support!

Dude, as soon as you posted, i was *ON THROTTLE!*
Now we are talking!
the RX series is one of my all time favorite cars - lexus in general is a brand i really enjoy.
We now live in an era where we have to point out “functional exhaust.” I’m getting old.
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.
Joe always got idea’s to say when talking about the MSRP, which I love it 😂❤️
Joe I love that new Lexus. the styling and the interior are gorgeous. I love that touchscreen!
Our white RX has been perfect for what we need, great SUV
Love my RX 450h! Had this for about 10 years now and still going strong and very dependable! Wish I could get the 350 in the UK :)
You live in wrong continent come to USA
Love the videos my guy.
Thanks Peter for letting us share it with you!
i can't afford this but it's so entertaining to watch these reviews 😂
I feel you 😂 they’re just fun to watch but to also gives options in case I do get the money

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
Always entertaining and informative Joe. On throttle! Well done as always.
Just picked this up today. Totally love it

trust me RX is shitty. i own one.
Sedans are more superior for me than SUVs
That’s a lot of chrome for a “black line edition” - ZOONNNNNK
It definitely should have been blacked out all the way.
Tape, super fine emery cloth, small cans of spray primer and flat black auto paint...and you'll have one uniquely your own!
Eshoovee
Props to Joe for consistent content.. I reaaaally appreciate it! 👌
I love your channel Joe and your personality fam. You're a good man!
No mirror on the center console.?
Blacked out rims look amazing 👏
Maan I luv your reviews you are the maan , an your wife handles that camera like a funking pro her angles an close up 's are perfect 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
They should def add this color to Lexus entire lineup
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
I agree with you on the mirror cap and window trim! It should have been dark chrome or blacked out
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.
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! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Beautiful, classy, with understated elegance...inside and out. At 50k, not bad at all. Home run!!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Agree with you on the chrome window trim ! That black finish would have been a fine touch !
This SUV is gonna sell like crazy...
Of course! It’s beautiful, plush, and reliable.

You’ve still got me sold on the 2022 Lexus NX. I’m about to put a poster on my ceiling. 😆🤣
You overlooked the "hold" feature above the shifter. Small ding to you. Thanks for the video!

how is the seat comfort compared to a non f sport? ride comfort compared to non f sport?
Thanks for another upload! I absolutely love everything about this luxury SUV, too bad I can't afford it. 😅
Not just for this car, but for any car, if it's gonna be chrome, it's gotta be dark chrome
We literally just bought this car like a week ago. I had to watch this video
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.

F sport but same engine as the base? They are both v6 3.5? No turbo?
Love The Video Bro
I have this car and my only gripe is f aport seats are stiffer racing compared to non f sport (which are much softer)
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.
I personally don't mind there being silvery chrome for the windows, the vehicle looks good regardless imo.
Why would the trim not be blackm??
Fun fact:
It took 5 years for Lexus to developed that blue color...
Loved the review! Thank you!
Great vehicle..price is not too much..luxury and reliability...nice video JOE and Lori
hey joe was this FWD or AWD ?
Great video as always. Love the energy you bring!
It still deserves the big sales volume in its class
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
Love the color 😍
Great review as always 👍
Thanks for taking the time to say that.
I have an idea. How about they stick their n/a V8 into one of these so we can actually be interested
Hey Joe will you be at the auto show up New York for the new release of the WRX?
This is a amazing suv lori is doing a great job
RX F sounds fire 🔥
Always liked the RX design, but nothing touches the F-Pace SVR you did last week - dream car. Cheers from Ireland 👋
i really enjoy my day watching you joe! and im here for your ‘on throttle’ your fan from vacouver, bc💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

@@RaitisRides I notice u use nice touch when something good happen.
how many colors has the ambient lights ?
That engine just sounds so good.
Any idea when the 2022 comes out or how many Blackline they might produce?
I like the Lexus grille. The BMW grille is atrocious.
It is interesting how these grills are so different.
They are both atrocious...
@@DUNGSTA Lexus one looks good bmw one is dependable the M3 yes but iX and 4 series no
That's debatable
@@DUNGSTA Lexus grill looks like a cowcatcher on the old locomotives. Lots of people do love it though.
I build the Lexus RX350 and 450h in Cambridge, Ontario. Where was that one built?
How the hell are they keeping the chrome window trim? Lexus truly annoys me sometimes
They do that on Toyota’s too, my Camry has chrome all around the window.
i'm happy for you that you finally found a hidden wiper :)
How do you launch so fast of the start when you go 0-60?
comfort and quietness that’s what lexus is all about , i guess it’s gonna go for redesign sooner or later 👍🏻
No fog lights! I wonder if this will carry over for the 2022 model year
Joe did mention LED fog lights at the beginning of the video..at the 2:45 mark..
I agree to much chrome and I don't like the flat black plastic guards
How do you turn on the AC at the back seat
You and Lori are awesome!
Porcelain dolls?! I literally Lol'd Needed that laugh bro 🤣🤣
Thanks for letting me share some laughs with you!
A free can of plastidip should be included with all that chrome smh
How do ya’ll feel about the hourglass shaped grill on Lexus vehicles? Kinda reminds me of the new M3 huge nostril grill. Not really a fan personally of either, but maybe I’m an outlier.
The Lexus one looks far better
The Lexus grille has motion to it. The M3/4 grille just looks static, doesn't really flow well
The shape of the Lexus grille works way better with the size of it than the BMW grille imo
Great to see even Lexus got their higher end suv they need more performance cars in the lineup
The blue stitching is nice since blue is my favorite color
First thing I'm zonking is the chrome mixed in. Lexus, don't be scared to make it actually 'Blackline".
