I have the window down enabled on mine using the Carista app. Works great and saved me a trip to the dealer.

You can also ask dealer to disable seat belt chime.
No one that I spoke to at the dealership would do it. What I ended up doing is asking them to "adjust" chime and then I asked the technician to completely disable it. It's nice when you drive around a large neighborhood at 15-20 mph and not have to listen to the beeping. This just disables audible tone. Everything else is business as usual.
Traction Contoll Off - car cannot be moving and you have to press and hold the button for about 3 seconds until you see some extra things light up on the dash.
Lane Keep Assist - you don't have to keep grabbing steering wheel. Car will just keep driving and keeping safe distance ( also distance is adjustable when you press the button more times ) I had it drive me for about 10 minutes without touching steering wheel and windy highway.
Siri Eyes Free assistant - you can talk directly to Siri on your iPhone through your car after holding down vice command button for couple of seconds. That's in addition to Lexus voice commands.
Windows down with key fob unlock button - would like to confirm that windows down and/or sunroom open is an option that only dealer can enable.

Just found out that you can pull the windshield wiper arms up (following with same angle as the windshield) to have easier access when cleaning that area and for replacing the wiper blades.

Not sure if anyone posted this but on the '16 GS350 with Lux package the 19" wheels are called "quiet wheels". There is an air chamber built into the front bead around the circumference of the wheel that Lexus says dampens road noise. I can't say how effective it is as this is my first GS. I can say that the Dunlop tires on mine are much quieter than I thouhgt they would be.

I've had my car for almost two years now and FINALLY took it on a long road trip through several Mountain Ranges driving from Alberta to Seattle. What an awesome trip in an awesome car!!! Carving up the mountain roads in sport+ was an absolute blast!
I found a new feature that I've never even heard of before. When using the cruise control the car will gear down on it's own in order to maintain your speed when going down steep hills!! How cool is that!!!

■ S-FLOW mode
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the airflow is given to the front seats, reducing the airflow and air conditioning effect on the rear seats.
If a passenger is not detected in the front passenger seat, priority for the air- flow will be given to the driver's seat only.
In this case, the temperature indicator for the front passenger side will turn off. S-FLOW mode will be activated automatically according to the set temperature, outside temperature, etc. (P. 502)
The indicator comes on when S-FLOW mode is on.

LED under rearview mirror
I found out that there is a little LED light under the center of the rearview mirror. You can see it clearly at night time, or put your finger underneath the rearview mirror and you can see it. It's not very bright, but I found it when I was adjusting my ornament hanging off the mirror!
