This looks so good .
Oh , I'm so excited .
I'm so happy .
I went with the white , the white just looks premium and the interior that Palomino interior .
Oh , it looks great .
How do you like ?
It ?
Doesn't it look so nice ?
Honestly , very happy with the interior color .
It looks beautiful , like beautiful .
It's very classic with the white .
It's very , very , very nice .
Oh my .
What is up guys ?
We are headed to Lexus of Oakville to pick up our first , my first brand new car .
A 2023 Lexus N X 3 50 H .
I am pretty pumped about this .
You guys know I've been looking for kind of another vehicle SUV to kind of hold over a little bit .
This Lexus is amazing .
I love my Lexus I 250 .
You guys on the channel , but it's a little bit small now and the family is growing so we need a bigger vehicle and the Lexus NX 350 .
Absolutely loved it .
You guys know I went , I did a review of the Lexus NX 350 with the F sport three package .
Thanks to my good friend .
He lent it over to me .
I had it for a couple of days .
Absolutely fell in love with this offering from Lexus .
I love the new NX .
I love the exterior .
I love the styling , love the looks , love the technology package inside .
And so we pulled the trigger .
I originally wanted the lyric , right Cadillacs lyric , the all electric SUV .
Awesome offering .
Unfortunately , I don't think we're going to be seeing that vehicle that SUV come in until 2024 .
2 25 .
Not ideal for me .
Unfortunately , I can't tell the baby to stay in the oven for longer and wait .
So you looked at all the options .
We went , we went and looked at the Q five from Audi , we looked at the G V 70 as well and at the end of the day , still preferred the Lexus a lot had to do with the , by the way , the G V 70 from Genesis just beautiful vehicle inside and out the inside material finish .
I will say is a little step above than the Lexus NX .
But I felt like the N X had a better technology package and I like everything else about the N X and fuel economy .
So specifically the N X 350 H , you're getting almost 40 50% better fuel economy than the regular non hybrid model .
So this is a hybrid model , not plug in hybrid .
And you know , Toyota Lexus , they've been doing these hybrid models for a long time , so very reliable , very good mileage and performance out of this as well .
And to be honest with you , while it still lacks the horsepower compared to the M X 350 it's going to give you that power a little bit earlier on in the torque range .
So it feels pepper anyway .
So I'm not too concerned about , you know , the horsepower here .
This is really going to be a daily driver , right ?
So I wanted something that was good for a fuel economy .
I wanted something that had enough space for a growing family and I also wanted something that looks really , really nice and I love the look of this Lexus X .
So I'm going to take you guys along the journey .
I've never bought a brand new car .
I always tell people all the time don't buy brand new if you can't , right .
So if you can avoid it , buy a used one , slightly used , whatever , save some money , you know , this is 2023 we're headed into 2023 now .
Happy New Year , by the way .
And the car market is just kind of crazy .
So I kind of don't really have a choice if you want this vehicle , you need to buy it brand new .
And you know , for me , unfortunately , you got to buy the MS R P .
I negotiated a coffee mug that was all I could negotiate .
This was actually a cancel order and they canceled it wherever the buyer was and it was the exact spec we wanted .
So this is the ultra luxury package with the Eminent white pearl on the exterior and then the beige interior .
So I'm really looking forward to picking this up .
Um really , really pumped you guys know , I'm a big Lexus fan boy that had a little piece to do with making this decision .
But I wanted the lyric at first , I wanted some other vehicles and I really did feel that the N X 3 50 the H was just a better overall option than the Q five and the GB 70 especially not just thinking about the five year reliability and cost but like over a long period of ownership time , which is what I plan on having this car for .
I plan on owning it forever .
Kind of just like this one .
You know , I want to go with the Lexus reliable , proven great tech package .
I love the big screen on that too .
So I'll take you guys along .
I'm looking forward to it .
Let's see what a new vehicle pickup feels for the first time in my life .
It was actually my dad that always told me never to buy new cars .
Very good advice actually , right , especially for those that are conscious on price .
Um When I told him that I got this N X and he's like , did you buy it from the dealership ?
I'm like , Yes , he's like , he loves Lexus so much .
He's like , you know what , you bought a good quality car at least .
And I seen 100 of them parked right outside being ready for shipment and I'm pretty sure it's the steel or the aluminum that I'm going ahead and shipping to them .
And I'm like , you know what ?
You're probably right .
So he wasn't actually so upset with me buying this brand new car at the end of the day .
It's a Lexus .
If there is one car to buy brand new that you know will last and hold a lot of value or as much value as you could hope a car could hold , it would be the Lexus .
So there's that saving grace , right ?
Like I don't feel so bad .
So we're here .
I'm excited .
This one's an F sport one .
So we did a review previously .
You guys know the black F sport looks nice , right ?
These are painted to match the body color .
We didn't get that or bolstered seating .
All that jazz .
Well , my insurance company didn't forward them the insurance and of course you need insurance to drive off of the lot .
So I'm on the phone waiting .
I let her know three weeks ago , this is the mug I'll be taking as my souvenir .
So how excited are you for the Mommy mobile ?
You're gonna be Mommy mobile .
So believe it or not , there's still a lot of paperwork that needs to be done even though you sign all the papers and all that jazz .
So we just finished it all off .
The insurance is all settled .
Now , we're going to actually get a full delivery tour .
They're going to walk us through all the features and just make sure it's personalized to us before we actually leave the dealership .
So , pretty cool .
The experience is about to start .
We're here .
We're gonna get the delivery experience from Nathaniel .
He's gonna walk us through the Lexus .
It's looking beautiful .
Wow .
See , I told you these rooms look amazing .
Right .
That looks really , really nice .
Oh , man , just beautiful .
All right , Nathaniel .
Ok .
What do we got here ?
Ok .
Let's take a look .
I'll start with the trunk .
You always start with the back , push and hold to pop it open .
All right .
And here are the cloth mats .
The rubber mats are already installed .
Big pouch on that side is the owner's manual .
All the owner stuff .
Yeah .
Yeah .
Little pouch here is a first aid kit .
Got you .
And then below here is just additional storage space .
That's decent storage because there's no spare tire in .
This car comes with the run flat tires , run flat tires .
Yeah .
And then this thing folds into your cargo net just if you have any groceries that doesn't fly around back here .
Got you .
Yeah .
Ok .
Nice .
I didn't even realize it came with that .
I didn't know it also came with this .
So that's good too .
Yeah .
You know , a stroller baby come in and bang .
Exactly .
Ok .
Good .
Actually , little Easter Egg .
This looks like the grill .
Oh , yeah , it does .
That's , I like that nice touch .
Ok .
The designers are thinking that's good .
Um , and then this , uh , lock button closes and locks the whole car , but it's a walkway feature .
So if I push it , nothing happens until we kind of back up from the car .
Ok .
Ah , ok .
He still thinks you're in there messing around .
Got you .
Interesting .
Ok .
Yes .
Actually , I think I might have forgotten it .
Sorry about that .
This is the ultra luxury pack .
Yes , it does .
It has the kick feature , which is handy .
Like now we can not struggle .
Ok .
That's good .
That's awesome .
It is good .
It is the first , actually , I think our newest car is a 2009 I S 2 50 .
So it's like a big jump in terms of like all the tech and then all the other stuff that we get .
It's pretty cool and it's good that you're kind of familiar with the tech and all that .
Yeah , door handles are brand new .
Actually , I'll cut myself off .
You have the smart key access .
So doors are locked the keys in your pocket , you just place your hand on the door and it unlocks and then to lock it , you can tap this in here .
Got you .
Ok .
Um , and like I was saying , the door handles are brand new .
So if you feel here there's a button that you can pop , right ?
Pull it open .
Gotch you and it's the same thing to get out .
You have this push button .
Gotcha .
Yeah .
So the idea is you just push and push the door open .
Got it .
Got it .
Yeah .
Ok .
Um , what is very important though ?
Because the doors are all electric .
Say the battery dies , manual exit or emergency exit is if I pull this twice , ok , that will manually get you out of the car .
Ok , that's important .
It's very important .
Ok .
Um The reason they have these doors electric is for the safe exit assist .
So say there's a cyclist coming alongside you .
Um you don't see him but the car scans him , right ?
It's gonna just not let you get out of the car until he drives past you .
Ok , that's good .
There's been a few times where it scared me like cyclists come out of nowhere even though you check , they just come out of nowhere downtown in the city .
That's huge .
It is awesome .
Uh And of course you have a manual entrance , right ?
You would just get a credit card or something and pop this piece off and then Oh yeah , just like our today .
Yeah , yeah .
Ok .
Very similar .
Unlock it .
Got all four doors have this hidden door handle which is , oh , I didn't even see that .
Yeah .
Ok .
Wait , so you just , yeah , so that's , that's the emergency , like manual entrance to the car .
Yeah .
Gotcha .
All right .
All right .
Blind spot mirrors , of course .
Right .
And then all over the car , the little circles are the parking sensors when you're getting too close and it beeps at you .
Um , and then you have reverse camera and you have the front camera , which is for the 3 60 view monitor , which I'll show you when we're inside .
Um , and then the little camera lanes at the top there is for your lane , trace as you drive .
If you drift out of the lane , uh , the steering wheel is gonna vibrate and then it can slightly nudge you back to your lane .
Got you .
Um , so that can be turned on or off , got you .
And your big one is called the pre collision system , right ?
So it's always scanning and if it thinks you're gonna get in a collision , it's gonna start beeping and telling you to break .
Um , and then if you can't hit the brakes in time , it slightly pushes the brakes for you .
Got you .
The idea is like to assist you with breaking .
Gotcha .
Ok .
Or at least give you a little jolt like , hey , need to start breaking .
Yeah , the car slams on the brakes and like parking situations .
So even if you were like reversing into your garage and wanted to hit your wall , it wouldn't let you wouldn't .
Ok .
Good .
That's good to know .
Yeah , it's nice .
Yeah .
Yeah .
All right .
You want to see under the hood you see under the , I always say you're never gonna see a cleaner , right ?
Ok .
Let's see it under the hood .
I guess this is just the center latch .
Yes .
Ok .
Yeah .
All right .
There you go .
That does .
Yeah .
You'll never see it cleaner .
No .
God , this is gonna bug my O CD .
When I refer back to this video , it's like , oh God , how do we get it this clean again ?
Oh man , obviously washer fluid here .
I don't know if you check your oil yourself , you have stick there and then of course you wouldn't worry about the coolant and brake fluid .
But right .
Interesting .
You know what , when I was looking at this car zero W 16 , 1st time I ever seen a vehicle requires such a thin oil .
But I guess for fuel economy , et cetera , that's why they need it and all the hybrid stuff working out over there .
Very cool .
Honestly , I'm really like the hybrid fuel economy .
What it's rated for is awesome .
Like , you know , I'll be honest at first we had a reservation for the Cadillac lyric and I thought ok , let's go full E V all this stuff .
But then there's just so much delays with all this stuff .
The hybrid is like the best of both worlds , in my opinion .
You don't have to require a plug in really great fuel economy .
Yeah , maybe he doesn't have as much horsepower .
The , but it has the power in the lower end of the R PM band .
So that's all you need to be honest .
I think you'll be impressed with the power .
I think so too .
I think so too .
We took my buddy's F sport and that was great .
Three .
It was awesome .
But I think we're gonna be happy with this power .
It's gonna be awesome .
Nice .
Very clean .
Yeah .
Well , you wanna have fun looking good .
It's looking good .
Wow .
I just love the white , this white , beautiful pearl white .
Yeah , I love what they did with the grill and everything .
I've always been a fan of the Lexus like big grills .
Yes , me too .
I'm sure you know like what the previous generation grill was like major upgrade , big upgrade .
I really like this .
All right .
Engine looks good .
This looks so good .
Oh , I'm so excited .
I'm so happy .
I went with the white , the white just looks premium and the interior that Palomino interior .
Oh , it looks great .
Well , I'm so glad we went with this interior color .
It is very nice .
I am so happy good .
Um Yeah , your lights are on auto down there .
Ok , definitely would just keep them on auto auto .
Yeah .
And then if you hit this button at the edge , you see how that's turning green when I push it .
Yeah .
What , what is that automatic high beams ?
There's oncoming traffic to low beam back to high beam for you .
Interesting .
So , when it's green it's on automatic high beam .
Yes .
Ok .
Got it .
Ok .
So we should just keep that on .
Definitely , very cool .
Uh , and then the left side of your steering wheel here controls your information display .
Gotcha .
Ok .
Just scrolling down for vehicle information and I can scroll to the right as well .
So that's a compass .
The music you have playing , I see .
Ok .
Adaptive crews and different settings .
Awesome .
Yeah .
And then , uh , of course , their voice command and cell phone and right side here is just cruise control set up .
Got you cruise lane .
Exactly .
And climate control here .
Awesome .
Fairly straightforward , heated seat .
That's the ventilated seat up or cooled seat .
Yeah , heated steering wheel .
And then my side here you have this temperature dial and fan speed .
Awesome .
Are you familiar with hybrid systems at all ?
Like no .
So explain a little bit how it works .
So , you just heard the engine kick in there ?
I'm gonna go here to vehicle energy flow .
So that's the hybrid battery there and it shows the engine just kicked in .
It's flowing some charge up into the battery because it must have been a bit low .
Um , I always think of hybrid systems as like a range extender .
So you have the gas engine and then the hybrid battery , the two are just working together to save you fuel .
Right ?
Um , what I mean by range extender is you have about like , what was the distance to empty ?
It was 840 .
If you , if you just got the gas version , not hybrid , it would probably be around 500 .
Yeah .
So that's just a range extender , right .
Yeah .
Wow .
Um , and then I'll go through these buttons real quick .
So the car of course is all wheel drive , but this is like , uh , in all terrain mode , you see the tree in the rocks just if you're in a rougher environment , traction off .
So I wouldn't really push that un unless you guys are trying to have .
Yeah .
Ok .
Yeah .
So it's always on until I turn it off and it takes up your entire display .
Got you .
Ok .
Hold is a break , hold .
So you're at a red light and your leg is tired , you can hit , hold and then take your foot off the brake while the car is in drive .
Ah , ok .
Just to , just to rest the leg .
Yeah .
Yeah .
Yeah , I know .
It's , uh , it's , yeah , one of those things you test in a parking lot first .
Yeah .
Ok .
We'll do that test in the parking lot first .
This p here is like your , um , your parking brake or your hand brake , but it's automatic .
Got you .
So as soon as you put it in park it turns on , take it out , it will turn off , got you .
And then E V mode is super nice .
That's , yeah .
So I pushed it and it came up down there on the left side , that E V mode there .
Yeah .
So E V is , uh , using obviously electric vehicle using all battery and no gas , but it turns off when you drive over 40 kilometers an hour .
So it's meant , or like if to accelerate too aggressively got you .
So it's meant for like traffic or parking lots .
Ok .
Cool .
Very cool .
It is really good .
Like , I imagine you're in 30 kilometers of traffic using no gas .
It's nice .
Yeah .
Um yeah , this thing here is super cool .
So if I pull it towards us it changes from the mirror to the digital mirror .
Yeah , a camera love that .
Yeah .
So the idea is you have your trunk full of stuff and you can't see out the back , you just flip it to the digital and you can see .
Um but I've met a few people who actually prefer the digital mirror .
I do .
You do , I'm just gonna keep it like this .
Really .
Yeah .
Ok .
Wow .
Yeah , that's the thing you do see a much wider range of what you see and it is clear , but just , I guess I'm just so used to the mirror .
I'm curious , I'm gonna put up a poll on the channel .
How many of you guys prefer digital versus the regular ?
I don't know .
I like the digital and we'll see what people say .
Interesting .
Yeah , when we test it with the , we could see what they're talking , I don't know what you're right .
Pretty cool .
And then this view button is very nice .
So that gives you the 3 60 degree view of the car and it does take a few seconds , but then it's going to pan out to the bird's eye .
Very cool .
Yeah , you can check if you're in the lines and all that .
Very , very cool .
And then I'll show you my favorite feature with the view .
So I'm actually gonna put the car in drive if you just keep your foot on the brake .
Yeah .
So you go left and down for drive or left and up for reverse and then p puts you in park now .
Sorry , I'm gonna go back to drive and if I hit the view button , pulls up your front camera , what's up front ?
And then if I hit auto here now whenever you drive under 12 kilometers an hour , right ?
This is your screen .
Got you .
Ok ?
So this is where now , like you go up to somebody you see how much space you have in front of them , all that .
Ok .
Very cool .
Like say we were trying to get in that spot right in front of us .
You could see the width .
You could see how close you're getting .
It's very cool .
Say you don't like it , you can just turn it off but I'll leave it on for you .
Yes .
Yeah , exactly .
Yeah , I don't , I'm gonna , I'm gonna steal that example from drive through .
Yeah , and P for Park .
Awesome .
Ok , Lexus app .
Ok .
So what do you want to do ?
Good .
She's already listening to me .
So it shows kilometers till empty at the top .
Lets you lock , start and unlock the car from your phone .
Down below is just additional vehicle information when it loads in .
Um , my favorite part of the app is that part , the vehicle status because like if you locked it or not .
All right , we just finished up the delivery experience .
Now , believe it or not , there is still some stuff we need to sign and then we're going to go out , take it back and just clean it up and we're doing a full P P F .
So again , if you want to check it out , I'm going to show you how to apply a full P P F precut on any vehicle .
We're going to just be obviously doing it on this Lexus and then putting a ceramic coating on it .
So we'll get all that done .
So how do you like it ?
Doesn't it look so nice ?
Honestly , very happy with the interior color .
It looks beautiful , like beautiful .
It's very classic with the white .
It's very , very , very nice .
Oh my , I love it .
This is a pretty awesome experience .
I do want to say Lexus of O Thank you .
They did a great job .
Um Nathaniel Fiona , the delivery specialist as well .
Really did a great job on everything pretty cool to pick up a brand new Lexus in 2023 .
Um Let me know if you guys have any questions , thoughts leave them down in the comment box down below .
Make sure you like this video .
Again .
I have so much stuff that we're going to be doing with this vehicle .
So full P P F full ceramic coating .
It's not just for this , it's for any vehicle that you're getting for a brand new car or even your used car , just like I did on my Audi R eight , which was 15 years old .
So make sure you subscribe to the channel .
Can't wait to take this back .
We're going to do a , you know , alcohol , clean , make sure it's fully clean , wash it , get A P P F installed , all that jazz , but we're going to go inside and just set it up .
Enjoy all the features and capabilities .
We're going to obviously bring you guys along on that and a lot more videos to come .
It doesn't mean that my trustee is 2 50 just over here is going to go anywhere .
We're going to keep that car .
It's definitely a great reliable secondary daily driver for us .
We just need the N X because we're having a bigger family come on board .
So now we have that and just look how beautiful it looks .
Oh my God , it looks so , so , so nice .
Love the rims .
I I I was thinking about changing the rims at one point and I'm like , no , these rims are awesome .
All right , I'll catch you guys in the next video .
Time to enjoy this .
