Government mandated?! First, backup cameras...now, visible tpms?? I guess the government doesn't want us to manually check our tire pressure with a tire pressure gauge anymore...Thanks Obama.
I'm not an Obama fan, but "thanks Obama" about tire pressures? Nah.
For every one of us enthusiasts that care about their vehicles there are 10,000 people who change their oil every couple of years and drive on tires that are flat and don't give a damn. I'm happy they are getting tools that will make these people potentially less dangerous to the people who actually do care.
That is BS, my LX570 has all those features. The auto folding mirror should be a simple upgrade by swapping out the switch with the RX350 one. I feel it was a big oversight on them. I was going to buy the GX but the folding mirror was the biggest issue.

There IS a folding mirrors on my Premium '15 BUT you have to do it manually (i prefer it this way because I don't want it to fold automatically if it is FROZEN outside).
Individual wheel TPMS? I haven't seen it on my GX (got that on my RX450h but NOT on my RX350). Where do I check for this on the GX?

Thanks.
All you would have to do is turn the auto feature off. As for individual TPMS, it's not offered on the GX 460. I have both auto folding mirrors and individual TPMS on my LS 460.
