Default You guys think there will be an aftermarket upgrade kit for the screen?

Loving my car to death. I've only owned it for a month but I'm still getting the jitters every time I come out and see my car.

With that said, one of the main things that I do not like is the screen. It's so frickin' small. LCD screens aren't that expensive. I'd gladly pay another $200-300 if they put in a bigger screen. Do you guys think someone will come out with an aftermarket solution? Or is it even possible? There's so much room there for a bigger screen!

If the screen is bigger you cannot see the left side of the screen from driver's side. Part of the push button start area is blocking the left part of screen. But still it's no excuse for Lexus to not make it bigger. I can't believe it's the same screen size for RC-F also. $70k car!!!!

I'm actually alright with the size, but give me some graphics and useful functions. The voice recognition is just garbage.

They should just pull the screen from the GS.

you won't be able to see a large portion of the left side.

i mean, they can make the screen larger, but it can't be large enough to extend from one end of the area to the other as visibility issues come into play.
