New IS3 interior just made my IS250 interior look old and boring.

I hate the navigation ****.
Looks like the navigation screen will pop out of the dash.
I hate the high ignition button

Looks like the square in between the 2 vents is enough room to put an analog clock like the GS

Do love the speedo.
Do love all the new shiny buttons for me to push!

These pictures are non navi, and that is NOT a navigation ****. Navi models have remote touch and a wrist rest. Non navi have that empty space and a joy stick like controller to control your multimedia display. Navigation is recessed like the GS and does not pop out. That square is the analog clock.

Guys, as for the speedo, this is on F-Sport models only. Your standard electroluminescent gauges will be on non sport models

The new Navi screen should be in the same place as the new GS and LS. The new LS has a 10" screen.

For comparison sake. Concept is translating to the real thing

It is, it is recessed. And the screen is 12.3" on both GS and LS

I actually would prefer that. It could be because I'm kind of scatter brained, but sometimes I forget to turn the heating or ventilation off for the seats, especially the passenger seat, when leaving/getting back in the car.

I predict car will be shown at the Detroit Auto Show and the internet will ***** to death about the IS.

I am very excited about seeing the production version(s). IS350 F-sport is in my crosshairs.

Finally power folding mirrors! I was shocked that the fourth gen. GS did not have them. Hopefully all US MY 2014 Lexus's have this feature. Their mirrors are getting way too big, not to have them.

And as for the "Remote Touch", that wheel is not remote touch guys. That is your standard controller for the multimedia screen. Many IS's will not come with navigation now, want to know why?? Glad to tell you, IS will be the first Lexus to be able to stream your navigation from your phone onto the multimedia screen!!
The entire center console & center dash looks like shet.
However, hearing that it will stream the nav from phone remotely slightly makes up for that crappy interior.
