Funny you mentioned that...no it did not.

But long ago there was a company that made a software to amuse driver and passenger. One of which the voice machine will say, "you f#cken moron, you can't drive and you can't follow directions...go ride a bike instead."

I can not find the company that is selling that software.

I seldom use those options with my other car now. I dislike the NAV the most! May only be me, but the lady talking irritates the sh#t out of me, "In a qtr. of mile make a right turn", "Make u-turn if possible"...

I actually told the voice machine at one point to "Shut the F#ck up! It's your fault I'm lost!!"

Headlight washer has nothing to do with the luxury package (it's a standalone options)

Nav has nothing to do with the luxury package (it's a standalone option)
(though I agree it's a crap option as provided on the 06-09 IS sedan)

The memory seats, the tilt-down side mirrors, the rain sensing wipers are all features I use reasonably often (in my sport package, but they're also in the lux package)... the power-tilt wheel is most useful combined with the memory seats as it'll auto-adjust back to your perfect position along with the seats.
