Lexus Link
Does anyone else agree that Lexus Link is the worst $900 ever spent?
One year of service, then a useless piece of electronics without paying substantial fees!

Pole Position
I use it 3-4 times every day. One of the best options on the car - and I don't ever have any problems parking without it to begin with; it's a wonder to operate, and takes all the guess work out of parking. Like anything new and groundbreaking, the user needs to put in a little bit of time practicing in order to get the full advantage of this feature. I practiced both modes on quiet side streets for two weeks to become familiar with it. I really don't know if they can ever improve on this feature or make it easier to use, but I really like it the way it is now.

I think you are referring to something else.

It's just like any "insurance"....if you never need it, what a waste of money...but...if the occasion arises where it saves your life (air bag notification?), or if you need to have them unlock the door, maybe it is worth it? I didn't want it to begin with, but, it was in the car that I wanted and that was available. I'll decide after the one year period if I'll spend the $199, but right now I'm leaning towards doing it. Like my disability policy, hopefully I'll never need. Just my 2 cents.

Don't forget the integrated phone.
I use the integrated phone all the time.
I don't carry a cell phone, I just use the Lexus Link personal phone.
Since it uses the Lexus Link antenna, I never have a problem with signal strength or lost calls.
One of the negatives, though (aside from portability from the car) is that it doesn't take messages.
Even if the phone weren't an option, it's value of insurance in case of an emergency is well worth the cost to me.
