Remote Start -- Question
I rec'd an email from a local dealership that a remote start system was available for the GS300 AWD (and IS250 AWD) -- anyone have any additional information or thoughts? is it a lexus product? do we need a second key fob? (i'll call them later, hopefully)

Here is a copy of the email...:
We are pleased to announce that you can now install a remote starter into your 2006 Lexus GS300AWD. Prior to now the push button start prevented a proper and safe remote starter installation. Additionally, there will be no impact to your electrical warranty and you will not forfeit one of your keys.

I called the number but the lady I spoke to had no idea about this
offer. She spoke to one of the service managers and all he said
was they were afraid to install the remote starter because of the
Push Button start system. She said she was going to speak to the
other service manager tomorrow and give me a call about her
findings.
Can you post the email in its entirety and let us know if it came
from the sales or the service department? Maybe it's a case
of the sales people jumping the gun and selling something they
don't have
offer. She spoke to one of the service managers and all he said

Called them again and initially she said it was going to be
impossible because of PushButton start. Then she went to check
with the sales people and said this is brand new and can be made
to work for our cars.
I'm taking it in next Wednesday. Hopefully it will work out well.
I'll let you know of my experiences
Thanks for the email info. Giving them the name of the sales
manager helped.
