I have lost all keys for my 2000 RX-300. I have heard horror stories of this costing lots of $$. Any ideas what the cheapest way I can get a new key made?

if the new car dealer ship did their job right. when the car was first sold. the key code was sent to Toyota.

a dealership should be able to cut a new key that will unlock the doors, and turn the ignition lock.

but if your key has a transponder chip in it, you will still need to have the car towed to a dealer to have it programed to accept that key to start the engine.
