Its very cool...maybe mine has it and just have set it that way yet. Mine just seems grainy and not as defined as hers. I don't know maybe there is something I can adjust just haven't had it long enough to figure out.
Is it because you have the 2006 GS430, come with Gen 4 navigation? How can you still get a new 2006 model GS this late in March 2007?

Hughh, post your pics and congrats on your purchase.

JaxGS350, hope to see you around town...you'll primarily see me around Mandarin/Southside of Jax. Your car looks awesome with the exhaust..maybe PM me how much that would set me back if I were to go that route. not sure of other mods I would do yet to the 430

Your black GS will be in a league of its own... I got too many admiring stares from people with my black GS.

I believe 2006 GS has gen 4 navigation (with v5.1 navi disc). Lexus upgraded the gen 5 navigation (with v6.1 navi disc) to 2007 GS models.
However, 2006 IS already has an upgraded gen 5 navigation system (I am not sure the version of disc).

BTW, I like your sexy red!!

Congrats on your new ride!! I know how feel about the beautiful red color. I looked for 3.5 months to find an 06 GS430 with the Matador/Black combo and all options except XM. Finally found one on the lot at Doylestown Lexus with 7386 miles on it. They flew me up from Fort Lauderdale and I drove it back in ~ 18 hours. Unbelievable drive! This is my first Lexus and I can see what all of the rage is about them.
