RX 330 made here or there?

Does anyone know how to tell from the VIN number if an RX 330 was made in the US or Japan?

Look at the first letter of the VIN, J = Japan and 2 = Canada.

2004 RX330 was made in Japan. I believe they shifted the production in Canada since the 2005 model year if I am correct.

Only RX400h and few % of RX350 (Navigation with ML audio system) are made in Japan these days.

Thanks. I appreciate the info.

I have a '05 RX330 and as far as I know ALL late model RX's are built in Canada. That's where my broker ordered it for me..
