Default Am I missing it or IS doesn't have it... digital clock anywhere?

Hello,

I can't seem to find a digital clock in my new IS 350 F Sport AWD.

I know the analog clock in middle of dash, but the screen with speedo doesn't have the time, and nothing on my nav screen shows the time either... not sure if its a setting to enable it somewhere?

I think there's a digital clock on the nav screen in the overlay. The one that pops up whenever you change the fan speed or volume of the audio.

if you blue tooth it, the digital clock shows on your cell phone screen. j/k, I thought the same thing when I first got the car. the lexus tech should've told you that during your briefing when you bought the car. that was actually one of the first questions I had during my briefing.

a digital clock exists in the nav system but only when you set a destination and choose to see the arrival time. but thats all we get is the time of arrival estimate. funny that when i drive through time zones it asks me if i want to change the clock +/- the hour... it dosent actually do anything

Thanks guys.

Wow that is really crazy that it can't display next to your cell signal on top left of main screen. Looks like I will be looking at a watch looking clock when I need the time.

i think lexus listened to all of the auto rags when complaining that the digital clock "cheapened" the interior.

i've never driven through time zones, however, if it asks you to change the clock, i'm pretty sure it will change the time that the car is keeping. the car does have a running digital clock in the background afterall

I guess you can find more information on your cell phone easily. I don't expect my car to do this as most cars don't.

My audi had it, and this is something I miss dearly surprisingly.
