His doesn't have the CUE system, it has the standard gauges.

One thing I really didn't like was the XTS' standard gauge cluster. Little half moon speedo, reminds me of the gauges on old Buicks. CUE is a must IMHO...

But then again, a little touch of retro here and there is nice too. For example, I like the round clock on the Lexus. That's the very first thing people comment on after the initial "Wow! Nice car Uncle Ben!"

No your incorrect all XTS have CUE it the same as Lexus Enform or Toyota Entune. Now mines doesn't have configurable 12.1" dash. Which IMHO was a little dark for my taste and more expensive than I was willing to pay to get it. Don't remember Buick's dash so your analogy might be correct on that it is still GM. meh But Lexus is still my next choice for a car probably the LS however. Thank to all for the great info and for your congrats..

Default 1-years old XTS, you can't go wrong.

I picked a used XTS VSport Platinum. It has 40K miles but you'd never know it. Currently working on an ecu tune to bump from 369 lb-ft to 530 lb-ft after some tuning. Lexus needs to catch up.
