2. Lexus RX 350

Many Lexus RX 350 owners give positive feedback on its great heat and sound insulation. To illustrate, most say that they do not need to raise voice to be heard by occupants while driving at high speed. This is thanks to a laminated windshield.

I don't understand this comparison. The RX350 should be an improvement on RX330. They are basically the same car and I don't see a choice to be made between the two. Anyone that has enough money would always go for the RX350 which in every practical sense, is an upgraded version of RX330. It is different from comparing RX350 with , say, BMW X3.

Very dumb and pointless. Imagine comparing a 2005 rx330 to 2016 rx350. I'm sure this op doesn't know the 330 has been discontinued since 2005.

If the comparison was between 2004-2006 Rx330 and 2007 -2009 Rx350 its quite fair , at least same body but updated engine and other components .
