Consumer Reports rated it very highly. Unless you are obsessed on having the Lexus "L" badge (it's still a Toyota in my book), I would just pimp out a RAV4 V6 and enjoy the fast ride.
Nowhere near as obsessed as some other brand car owners are about their vehicles. I really don't care if it is a RAV4 or an RX350. My wife likes the luxury and I like reliability so the obvious compromise would be a Lexus. This is a no lose deal for me. I get my Lexus GS back and get my weekends back (no more weekends spent under the hood of the X). Taking delivery tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh happy days!
