Is Card Key available on US model ?

 

No. It's only available on LS600 in US

 

It should be, I got the card key for my 07 460L. I had to buy it seperately but they progremmed it and it works great.

 

it's not available as an option, but it's doable.

 

I picked up an extra fob at the dealer today, and someone made a mistake and ordered me the card key for my car. I made a stink and they GAVE me the card key for free (since it was already keyed for my VIN anyway), and I got my extra fob they promised as well I didnt even know it worked similar to the fob (except w/o the buttons). Its pretty cool, but not sure id want to keep it in my wallet.

 

buy it from one of the vendors here on clublexus....that's what i did....then take it to your local dealer and have them program it ($50)....voila!

 

Which vendors have this?

I love mine. Case in point: I picked up take-out sushi a couple nights ago. When I walked up to the car and couldn't open the door, I realized I had forgotten my entire wallet at the cashier's. Phew - another benefit!

 

but it only works on LS models, am i correct to assume this?

 

nope, any car with the push button start.

 

correct, pretty much all the new lexus with push button you can get this to work

 

Will I be able to open the trunk by pushing the trunk button on the outside of the car with the smart card in my wallet?

 

yes, you can open trunk.....FWIW, the "sensitivity" of the card is not as good as the FOB....
