Hey guys.
I had a funny experience the other night. I was giving my friend a ride home and he said, "my 87 toyota camery has the same clock as your GS" and started laughing. Dang, I wonder why they didn't make the clock look nicer. It seriously reminds me of a $2 digital wrist watch sold by street vendors. Is there anyone who noticed the same thing? I really want to change out the clock for a more stylish one - but not like the infinity's (the traditional clock face looks great but I don't want it in my car). Any suggestions? Thanks.

-Andy

That's funny...when I bought my car as a CPO, part of the salesman's pitch to me was "...a certified pre-owned car comes with a warranty that covers practically everything but the clock." He must have know they've bene using the same clock for 15 years! :eek:

I think the digital clock is easy to read and stuff. Wouldn't want a round watch type clock like infinitis.

coocoo clock?

Well I would agree Lexus could of made it much nicer ,, the best Car clock I have ever seen until now is the Maserati Clock ,,, looks like an Oval shape built into the dash board with maserati Symbol inside it ,,,

The green matches the radios and the illumination of your shifter, etc.
