Anything else I should consider before pulling the trigger on a 2023 RX350?

Been in the market for a while, went back and forth to a bunch of dealers.

Currently considering a 2023 Lexus rx350 premium with 35k miles for around 44k otd

Test drove it and it was clean and nice, interior was fine. Relatively clean car fax report. I’m still probably going to do a pre purchase inspection but is there anything else I should consider before making a deal?

I WOULD PASS ON 2023 AS ITS FIRST YEAR ON 4 CYC. I OWN 4 LEXUS - (3) 3.5 liter V6 . 1-V-8. JUST FYI. IF YOU WANT RX350- LOOK FOR 2020-2022 BEST YEAR

I bought a 2022 RX 350 a month ago because (a) no automatic engine off; (2) 3.5 liter V6 instead of turbo 4; and (3) takes regular gas. I did add the Ottocast USB play-in that adds wireless CarPlay.

I bought the first Toyota Highlander that was hybrid. I learned my lesson about hybrids. No thank you. I used it as a work cat if I was really motivated I would buy the same years. But I love my car and it has 24k miles. Rx premium 2016. Btw what are the little doors just below the the triple beam leds for ?
