Mousie,

You can check the 'model library' at least for prior year cars on www.lexus.com.

For example, from 2003 to 2004 the following items (formerly options or not available) are listed as standard features in 2004

http://www.lexus.com/cpo/model_detai...4.html#changes
Changes Made To The 2004 GS 430

Standard Features:

- Perforated leather-trimmed seats and interior, with Lexus Memory System to control power driver's seat (except lumbar), outside rearview mirrors and steering wheel
- Heated front seats
- Power tilt-and-slide moonroof with one-touch open/close and sliding sunshade
- In-dash, six-disc CD auto-changer
Its not 100% accurate though... because the same list is there as changes from 2002 to 2003

I forgot about the perforated seats(I don't care for the look of them myself), but other than that the only changes were the way options were bundled.

A local dealer has a "new" 04. So, other than losing a year's worth of value, there is absolutely no difference between the 03 I currently drive, the new 04, and the 05?
