I would curious if this is possible too.

Do you have to push the button down for the car to switch to your customized **** setting? Or does the automatically start up in that?

Would love to screen a picture of what you an truly customize if that's possible!

The HOLD button is behind the wiper stalk/below the speedometer. Saw it during a video walk around for a US-spec car.

When you play a DVD movie does it use the full screen?

How much are these running right now for the AWD model? $60k? Just curious if anyone has got 10% off MSRP yet with them so new.

10% off MSRP and they're barely hitting showrooms yet.

Congrats! You guys with your new '16 GS F Sports are making me want to come back to the fold.
I hate the new grill but at the same time I love it. I think Lexus is onto something. Gorgeous car!

Sorry I haven't replied to all the questions. I am enjoying the car and breaking it in before I lower it..

I want to get a couple thousand miles on her before I give a full review, but comparing the ride comfort and amenities to the 14 IS is really easy. The GS is king.

For all you long time GSr's do you prefer the tanabe springs to the Rsr downs. I had rsrs on the IS but I am looking for a more conservative drop this time around.

I have seen this around the forum.. Is the ride better than the RSR springs? I had RSRs on the IS and they were great. It looks like the tanabe drop is lower but I would like to maintain the rise quality and improve the handling a bit.

No, the car will never default to Sport setting when you start it up because of MPG standards the car company is trying to hit. It will default Normal or Eco mode (whichever you left it in) just because that produces the highest MPG.

No unfortunately it just plays on the left 2/3 of the screen and keeps the right side as a separate panel.
