  1. The only 350h (Payne grey and palomino with all the bells & whistles) have ever seen belongs to my second floor neighbor who has ordered id as soon as it was announced by Lexus. He had to wait 8 months nevertheless
  2. sorry guys I cannot wrap my mind around imperial system 😇
  3. Still searching on my side to do this also. Would be useful to set up a few favorites
  4. No rattles for me if correctly clipped in. However it is so light that it will tend to fold itself up and obstruct your rear view if an item in the trunk is a little bit too high. On the plus side, it is way less bulkier than the rolling cover of the Passat
  5. There were and by the time I picked un my car 4 weeks ago no 350h on display or avalaible for test drive at my delearship. Lexus France marketing efforts were and are still focused on the 450h+. I test drove a 450h+ which was set in hv only mode to « emulate » the 350h 😊 nothing uncommun in France. I was not able to test the powertrain of my ex Passat either. Call that a l’eau of faith
  6. With my NX450H+, with 3 bars left on the "guess o meter", the tank took 32.8 liters before click. Reserve is quite hefty (around 12 to 15 liters)...once you know you can be more relax. On the other hand, never fill it past the "click" or you may damage your vapor charcoal filter system
  7. Yes arrival times may vary due to weather conditions (biscay bay may be nasty any time of the year), tides, harbor pilots avalaibility, dock space, parking lot space..
  8. My precedent company car was a Passat SW which was 4,77 m long. So it is almost 11 cm less for me However, the car is wider especially with the mirrors where I went from 2.08 m with the Passat to 2.15 m (but only +3 cm for body width) Turning radius is virtually identical I think it is the car height (and the wheel size - I went from 17' to 20' rims) that makes it impressive (almost 20 cm more than my ex Passat)
  9. Just switched to an aftermarket (non OEM) puddle lamp, a real upgrade from the original one LED setup . A one minute plug and play job
  10. Well Thank you Robert. Rest assured you do not sound like a pedantic *****.🙃 Pretty sure that we'll change the world one ampersand at a time
  11. Well If I am correct Takumi trim goes with Mark & Levinson Audio and this particular option is on a very short supply... In France Lexus has chosen to "cut out" the M&L sound system option from its configurator until further notice
  12. Yes Stuart, the 1 key FOB delivery policy started with the cars builded in October 22. The shipping of the second key FOB is organized by waves beginning in June 23 and probably ending by december 23 (but this is an educated guess)
  13. Well, it will certainly cost Lexus way more to deliver the second key fob on an owner by owner base all over the world rather than directly deliver the cars with 2 FOBs. It is really a stop gap mesure to deliver complete cars to long awaiting customers. With top trims (Executive and F sport) you also get the wallet card (credit card format FOB)
  14. Since October 22nd, 2022, All NX are delivered with only one key fob (and eventually with the credit card key). The second key FOB will be delivered later by the dealership. Timeframe of this delivery was pretty sketchy. LSFT YoTube channel delivers another great video on this topic. https://youtu.be/hJMEv0RBZNw Get ready for another waiting game !
  15. Japan is also RHD country and way bigger market for Lexus . I suspect that it is also mandatory there to have lane trace assist defaulted to ON. I also suspect that this setting may also have something to do with international standardization regulations of ADAS systems
  16. First windshield washer refill Seems that the dealership missed the "fill washer" step in the pre delivery check list as I had the alert message on my way back to Paris (after less than 10 uses of the windshield washer). I can now testify that : The alert system works fine You can add 4,5 l or 1 imperial Gallon or 1.2 US Gallon of washer when it goes on The refill is pretty easy (much easier than on my Panda and on par with my ex Passat)
  17. My avatar is the rightmost part if my licence plate with the Normandy flag and its 2 lions (we call them cats). Just to remember 1066 😇 my signature pic itself is a fake french licence plate with Midori spelled in japanese. Happy that my amateur ship tracking routine gave you a little headway.
  18. Great news Harry ! Took mine around 3 weeks from port to dealership in France. I will bet on a mid-June delivery (with one key fob)
  19. First pit stop 5,5 liter per 100 km or 51 Mpg (imperial) 43 Mpg (US) pretty good for this big boy with 65% motorway 30% b roads and 5% city driving
  20. Great News. Enjoy your NX and welcome to the Nori (or Terrane kaki) Green team !
  21. Many Lexus interior are hard to get right on pictures. Dark rose will often be digitally processed into more bright red. Screenshot of your app seems closer to the real thing. Same thing happens with palomino / beige interior
