If it drags on beyond the next couple of days I'm going to request an entirely new LS as a replacement for mine lol
The dealer doesn't have any LS demos. Even their senior management aren't driving LS's right now. The only thing they would have to put me in is a new car on the lot and I understand them not being able to do that.
Not so bad, have a GS. Boy, the luxury package is a must have in the GS let me tell you. Oddly enough, the base leather in the GS feels a little better than the base leather in the LS too. Kind of strange...

Steve - does the service department have the new unit for your car? I don't see it taking more than a few hours to replace it. Am I wrong? What have they told you?

The issue has been waiting for the replacement unit. Once it comes in, its a very quick job to reinstall. It may have come in friday, they were working on it which I saw via the enform app (starting and stopping it, hood open, doors open for extended periods, etc). Once thats done a small curb mark on the bumper needs to be repaired at their body shop, then I'll get it back.
Hopefully they did indeed fix it Friday, it can go to the body shop tomorrow and I can have it back Tuesday. We'll see.

if i supercharged the LS i would be looking at lots of upgrades, brakes, intercoolers, radiators, heat extractors, air intakes, suspension, and that would be just the beginning. if you're going to do it, you may as well do it right...

Not yet. It was delivered back to the dealer from the body shop, I saw that on the app. But, haven't heard anything from the dealer other than either late tonight or first thing tomorrow, but they didn't seem to realize that it was even there. They close at 8, of course I want to take delivery of it when I can really look at it and make sure there aren't any issues.
Beyond frustrated.

Well...I'm back home from going to pick it up, and I'm still in the loaner.
Navigation still doesn't work. The service manager noticed it as soon as he pulled it around. Still freezes up and is inoperable when trying to enter any sort of a destination, still has the "Unable to read SD card" warning. I guess nobody bothered to check it?
They scratched the wood on the cupholder lid doing the replacement.
The bumper however, is fine. Its not absolutely perfect but would be fine especially once the clear bra went on.
So, left it over there. My position is I want another car. They have a nebula/flaxen optioned the same in inventory, I'll accept that. I might also accept cancellation of the deal and the return of my 4GS, but I don't think thats feasible.

Congratulations! I'm in love with the entire interior but that steering wheel looks AMAZING!!! <3 I'm a fan of the blackwood look, I recently just had quite a few of my parts from my truck hydrodipped in blackwood - stuff is ( . )( . )

Yeah, I told him over the phone tonight. He was receptive, said it was definitely a possibility and that he would look into it tomorrow (dealer was closing in 15 minutes).
