No offense mate, all I'm just stating is that everyone is entitled to their own opinion (regardless if it's positive or negative). Just saying
Anyways:
@to the OP/thread starter
Is Mark Levinson for the 4GS available in the GCC Middle East? If it is, then damn, you guys get some good stuff.
With that said, shame on Lexus Manila (Philippines) for cheapening on our audio system.
Imagine this:
GS 3rd gen (GS460) with 14-speaker Mark Levinson sound system -> GS 4th gen (GS350) with only 12 speaker Lexus Premium sound
Price is same.
I would've been okay if the price is unchanged even with a reduction of engine displacement. That's fine with me..............but to go cheapening on the audio system for our version here? Seems like a downgrade to me.......and I'm not appreciating what Lexus Manila did here.
P.S.
Wow, I didn't know the GS 4th gen had AUTO PARKING. This is only the first I've heard of it. (aka thought only the Lexus LS has this kind of thing). I'm shocked haha
Nevertheless, cool thing to have

No offense taken. I just wanted to point out an alternative viewpoint. From where I'm at, I sort of envy the guys over in the States with their relatively cheaper cars.
But I agree : overall Lexus has to offer the entire gamut of options so as to be fully customisable like the Top Tier German brands.

My point? Just saying that between paying 230,000 USD for a GS350 F-Sport and having to pay 58,000 USD and then paying slightly extra for DRS/ML and doing without powered trunk and autoclosing wing mirrors, guess which option I'd take?

I know Lexus generally doesn't offer this kind of immense customization outside of Japan.
However
I think there is still a way to make it possible...................if you know the right connections

The trunk thing really bothers me. The backup lines, not so much. But seriously lexus we should have power trunk and folding mirrors for $60k! I absolutely love my car, but I think it would be really close to perfect with those two options.
