Default Microsoft Cortana IS250 Integration

Has anyone been able to get their voice command system to work with Microsoft Cortana Mobile?

The Lexus text to voice is inferior to Cortana. I would like to disable all the Lexus stuff and use Cortana to read and compose messages among other things.

Well this sucks. I wonder if ripping out the radio and installing an aftermarket would help solve this.

I would rather rip into the F-Sport than go to the dark side :-).
