New GS Owner
First let me apologize if i shouldn't have started a new thread. At the risk of sounding like an idiot i am not familiar with exactly how this goes. A brief introduction of myself....
I joined CL i want to say 10/13. At that point i had an 09 Matador Red with Cashmere interior ES 350 NO NAV Turned it in with 26000 miles(Purchased it with 14000). I liked it just wasnt fun to drive. It was smooth to drive just not FUN. About 2 weeks ago i purchased a 08 GS350 70,000 miles.. I know its a downgrade but i love this car so much better. Figure if I'm making payments might as well get something i love.
Its an experience. Its the metallic Silver with Black interior, Nav RWD.
I have questions.
1. Is there a way to have the side view mirrors fold in automatically when i lock the car ?
2. Is there a GS that has a black interior roof ? I don't understand why the just don't black out the interior.
3. Is there a NAV/ Bluetooth override for mine ? I beleive i have a 3rd Gen GS which has 5th Gen Nav.. Correct ?
4. Can anyone offer insight as to the best way to maintain the GS besides the obvious ?
Anyone have any tips or Tricks ?
Again please forgive me if this is not how im supposed to post questions.
I have never been a "car" guy but now i can see how it becomes an addiction. I'm thinking about so much i would like to do to it.
Thank you everyone.

Vaistech probably has what you're looking for on the nav/bluetooth. I don't care about bluetooth, but I love my Vaistech unit. I don't have to push the "I agree" button anymore either.

check your owners manual under customize section, its the smaller book. I will so it later and then post the directions on how to close the mirrors when you lock the car!
