Default 2004 UL without Navigation!?

I’ve been searching for a used late model (2004-2006) with the ultra luxury package recently, and I just came across a 2004 model that has the UL package w/o navigation.

I didn’t think this was possible outside of early models in Canada or something like that.

Is this a Canadian car that found its way to this US, or is it just some kind of extremely rare special order?

Yeah, I saw and read that thread before which is where I got some of my info.

This is listed as a *2004* updated model not the pre-facelift. It does look to be an early 2004 as it doesn’t have the radar cruise control plate. I guess they could have also input the wrong year in the ad.

Check if the lower grill has a square-ish cutout. Or google “laser cruise” for the LS430. IIRC, you only got radar cruise (thus the plate on the upper/main grill) if you got the pre-collision option (which is an add on even on the UL).

I’ve heard the UL LS430’s without navigation were made in Hawaii. I think Gato/Gio had one on here at some point. I’ll have to search for more information on it. They’re extremely rare. I work at a Lexus dealership and nobody has seen one in person yet.

Well it’s 2000+ miles away from me and not a color I want, so I’m not going to buy it, but for anyone interested it’s in Greensboro, NC

It’s a 2004 UL without Navi or Radar cruise control.

I see one for sale in Hawaii. It's the ash wood trim and it's very attractive on the inside. Wonder how many of these were built in the 6 years.
