Or am I the only one that thinks this crown sedan thing looks like it was made 10-15 yrs. ago?

It's an older model and actually comes with manual transmission (on some models), pretty funky huh. An awesome platform to turn into a mega-vip sedan.

The Non-vertex edition which is only slightly cheaper comes with leather (more elegant), red brown wood grain (also more elegant) and 16inch wheels and no badgings on the side.
The same goes for the 2JZ-GE JZS160 (your version of Lexus GS300).
As for Navigation, it depends on the software, obviously the local Japanese GPS software is A LOT more sophisticated, which allows them to do all that cool jazzy 3-d mapping of the local area.
My brother was offered a 3-camera parking system (left, right and back) which helps you to precisely park your car. The camera even has guiding imaginary lines to see how you line up to the curb, to the car next to you, and it calculates how close you are to the wall behind you as you are backing into a parking space. It was a $5000 option and my brother decided to forego that option. He said he's not that dumb that he needs the help of 3 cameras just to park his car.

Does anyone know what happened to this link. It won't let me see the Japanese sight anymore. It says something in Japanese then quickly redirects me. Is it because Japan is getting Lexus or they just won't let US see site?
