its easy to tell if you do. if you have nav you'll have i believe 7 buttons around the navi screen. obviously if you have one that says map then you have navi.

to tell if you have ML look at the bottom right corner of the navi unit and it should say Mark Levinson like shown in the pic below

Lexus did ship GS430 models without nav and ML. However among GS460 models, although it is also optional, it is extremely rare to not have nav and ML.

Thanks for the quick replies. I was looking at one noticed it was missing buttons around the screen, so I was curious..

Why are there guidelines on this navigation screen? I don't have those.

Yes it looks British since the passenger AC control is on the wrong side. And the yellow letterbox plates in the backup camera image look British too.

I'm certain it will be included. I actually want top view camera. I will not buy another car without a top view camera.
