The GS may be getting RES+ real soon! Info...inside
I just got my LFS bill in the mail a few days ago and included inside there is an advertisement for RES+ (Remote Engine Starter Plus) for the RX/RXh, GX, ES/ESh and CT. I gave my local lexus a call and they told me that currently they have the green light on the RX/RXh RES+ but have not receive the green light for the other vehicles but told me that other vehicles listed under that advertisement will be available soon. I also ask them do they think its will be available for the GS/GSh too, and he said that if more customers were interested in the RES+ for GS then Lexus corp would likely make that happen. So everybody call Lexus corp and tell them we want it!
I am crossing my fingers on this one.

Had regular remote start installed by dealer last week. Was told that RES + could have been installed at additional cost.

I don't think its worth it, from what I've read in the RX forums. I went with viper and couldn't be happier. It has the same features plus more than the RES+. Trust me, we've been waiting for years for RES+.
And, viper gives you notifications.

I went with the smart start GPS model. I took a pic of the features here. You can also start the car with three clicks if the lock button on the remote, which was a pleasant surprise. The one thing I haven't inquired about is whether or not you can open the trunk from the app directly. Here are a few pics.

It still does. I don't know why Lexus has it set up like that. In a Cadillac I test drove the engine started along with the AC and when you get in and press the start button again everything else turns on.

I don't remember exactly but I believe it was around $500 installed. It is a GPS based subscription service for $99.99 per year, or $199.99 for 3, which I got. If you decide not to pay later on, you can still use the key fob to start the car.
