Does the 2016 Lexus GS350 F-Sport have self closing outside mirrors? I mean mirrors that close when you push a button?

My 16 200t does. There should be an "auto" button on your driver side window controls. Mine close when I lock the car

On '14 and '15 models, the power folding mirrors came packaged with BSM/RCTA. I believe BSM/RCTA is standard for '16, but I am not sure if the power mirrors are now standard or if they are separate, but they're definitely still available.

One thing to note, at least on the '14. If you want them to auto-fold close when you lock the doors, the "L" or "R" mirror button must be selected along with the AUTO button. Or is that for reverse look down? I've lost touch with my car, I better get re-acquainted.

Yes I have a 2016 and they come with it , you can choose either to close or not, so when u have it on Auto by pressing the button on the door, once u lock the doors it automatically folds, I love that.

I set mine to auto fold when I turn the ignition off. This way they fold out of the way while parked in my garage, without having to lock it (it's a locked garage so I don't lock the car in there). They open back up/unfold when I turn the car back on.

Is that a programming function?

There is an "auto" button on the top left corner of the square that makes up the switch on my 2015. I somehow neglected to investigate the workings of it.
