Default The Dream GX- Input please!

Hi everyone. It's fun watching the GX Forum grow!

I'm thinking of buying a GX. Assuming money is no object, what's the dream GX factory option package? I know most "options" are standard (like my GS430), but are there phat wheel/tire combos, brush bars, or those steps that make it easier to get in and out? I'm only interested in Lexus factory equipment.

the factory options are nav , 3rd row rear seats, lexus link, and rear entertainment
..
now you can get after market addons
running boards come standard and they are lighted...
only aftermarket part i am really after are the hid bulbs... i think everyone that reads this forum can agree
other then that...
i would say wheels would be your prefrence...

Things I would like to see for the GX;
1. Additional cigarette or power points in the back seats as well as near the rear door,
2. Park, distance control sensors,
3. curtains (like in the X5) for the rear doors as well as rear windows ,
4. power pop-out windows in the far back, and
5. panorama sunroof or 2nd sunroof for the back seats

Assumiong $ is no object, then gotta have all factory options that Kash listed. To take it a step further though (aftermarket): Tinted front windows. Rear wing. 20" HREs. TRD Supercharger. TRD exhaust. HID headlights. Front visor Monitors. Air bag suspension in front as well. Toyota Landcruiser Prado taillights. Aftermarket amplifier and sub....for now.

Kash, I got a connection for aftermarket H11 bulbs. They are 4500K. Since the company is not a CL vendor, we can't do a group buy on CL, but the company is willing to do their own group buy. Let me know if you are interested.

Kash, no pricing oin the bulbs yet. I'm still working out the details with my contact. I'll have something by tomorrow. Unless you want an HID kit. I am also just waiting for info on the type of bulb and ballast and the Kelvin color temp. I'll let you know both tomorrow.

20 or 22" Work LS wheels would be a must have

All,

I just received the final details on the H11 HID kits now available for the GX. I am waiting for a CL moderator to give me the go-ahead to post the group buy.
