wonder why Lexus didn't make this as a standard feature.. Once you drive a car with radar cruise, it's hard to go back to one without.

I've been considering adding it to my IS, would love to have it.

Sadly, I probably won't.

thats really cute haha. i remember being impressed by it and lane keeping assist on an rx350 while Lexus was doing my airbag recall. I actually have a dash cam hardwired in that beeps at me when I get too close to someone or the side of my lane. The one option I would really appreciate is a blind spot monitor because the rear visibility of the ISC is pretty terrible.

Yeah, blind spot monitoring would be a great feature.

Is this a feasible aftermarket addition? I was pretty surprised to discover that it was an option on the 2IS, would be cool to add it to mine.

TomDac, that Radar Cruise is cool!

Really wish I had blind spot monitoring as well. Oh well, just using some good old blind spot mirrors for now.

I have a friend with a 2003 BMW 7 series and he added radar cruise to it. There was a wealth of knowledge online in the BMW community. Not sure what kinda support you'd get from the Lexus community, but i'm sure it can be done if you have the know-how and patience.

do you have a nice blind spot mirror that flows well with the OEM? I've been looking for one, but don't want it to stick out like the standard circles
