When you press the button it gives you directions to the nearest parking garage, where a valet will assist you with parking.

Park Assist: press a button and it will signal by beeps if you get close to something in the car's way. No need for nav, but it does visually help.

Press the button and a little guy jumps out of a secert compartment in the trunk and directs you into a parking space with lighted wands.....just like at the airport!

you know, if it's a joke, i think a smiley or clarification would be nice. but made it sounds like that's really how it works @_@

i am not 100% sure about the setup in the IS, but for the new GS, it works with the nav screen. it beeps when you are getting close, and if you are heading front, it will tell you how much to tell your steering wheel to avoid the obstacle

Sorry, but could you translate that to English? As for smileys, I reseve the right to use them as I see fit. Questions that can be answered without any effort by either a trip to google or the Lexus site mean I can be a smart-*** if I want to.

Whatever works. If the name of the game is political correctness, I'd rather not participate, so do whatever you feel appropriate.
