To buy or not to buy an RX350

Hi everyone, first time potential RX350 buyer here.
I've heard and read all the reviews on the RX350
and it seems like the perfect small family SUV.

Are all the testimonials accurate?  Is it really
that good of an SUV?  I was leaning towards the
Pathfinder for power and utility and some off-roading
but I thought, I really needed more handling and
comfort as we will be using this SUV for the
family vacation trips.

Any 350 experiences, good or bad is appreciated.
I am looking to buy the 2008, or the 2009 if
the price is right.  Your purchase prices are also
welcome as I would like to know the ranges of
prices.  I live in Montgomery County, MD.

Thanks!
