Here's the new NAV display start up screen in the new GS. It's a lot more animated than ever before...and if you listen closely, the audible warning tone has changed from the low key DING to a high pitched beep after 22 years! I kind of miss the old DING sound.

Very cool! I like the auto outline resolve in to the logo.

Thanks for posting Ryan!

 

Awesome Ryan!!! The features in the GS are top notch.

 

everything looks great but they took a step backwards here, why update the 2009-2011 with the nav that you dont have to "agree" or "continue" and now its back... booo

 

That is nice!! I like the dual screen on the nav.

 

Damn, that's nice (something that you can show off to your passengers )

Though
I think the JDM models might get a small additional extra start-up tune for their units.

Anyways:
Hopefully we get that thing too here in the Philippines (even in the 8 inch screen versions in case that's what we get here).

 

LOL iv'e never seen that before ?? ^^^^

 

The agree is still there on my 2011 RX but it just auto selects it after a few seconds which I assume the GS will too if Ryan didnt click on the remote touch.

Also it seemed to take a while after selecting agree before the nav showed up...

 

I love how sharp it is when the Lexus logo appears!

 

Yeah, it looks like one of those neat treats that them JDM peeps get.

Also
Those *female* voice announcements are also real neat.

Hontto sugoi desu

 

noticed the new start up sequence on another video before, definitely a great improvement, very very nice

i guess it depends on whether that message will go away after a few seconds by default anyway, which is what current gen6 has

if it doesn't go away until you click continue, that's silly

 

True. And I hope that is the case. However I recently updated my nav to the 11.1 and the agree option is no longer there. It shows the message for about 3 seconds and automatically takes you to the nav screen.

Cool either way and cant wait to see them in person.

 

maybe it's just like my bmw. there is the warning screen and there is a "continue" button. if i don't care about it for a few seconds it's gone and map screen appears

 

You can get rid of the BMW warning screen and continue button with a software patch made by DVD-in-Motion.

 

Very cool!
