Default Unknown button

While checking out LS600's on Autotrader, I came across this picture below. What is the button beneath the Hold button? I've never seen it. I'm keeping my 460, but I like to see what is out there.



Also came across a 2011 LS600 REBUILT TITLE? with 1908 miles for $54k with Executive Package but no radar cruise? Why? Just why would you order the executive package but not the radar cruise?

It's part of the Advanced Guidance Parking System.

That's what I figured, but never saw a separate button for it. Thanks

You push that button as your approaching your parking spot of the advance parking system. It gets you set to get your park on!

You push that button when you want to transform your car in a suitcase. Make sure you get out of the car quick.

lol! Good one Luxofreak.

Would this feature also help with cross traffic alert when backing up? (the newer cars have this right?)

Here is the link to the vehicle

It was on a 2011. The link to the vehicle is above. I wonder if this is for the park assist like we have on the 07, 08 or if it is for something different like measuring the size of a spot as you drive by it?
