Default Remote Start

Anyone know if remote start is included on the LS 500 or is this another feature that is standard on many $20,000 cars but Lexus doesn't think needs to be included?

At least they didn't stick us with the auto start\stop feature

It's included free for the first year, then you have to subscribe.

I may be wrong, my memory not being what it used to be, but I recall reading that LS500 purchasers get a lifetime subscription to the Lexus Remote App, which includes the remote start. All other purchasers, like me, have to pay an annual fee for this service.

Nope, 1 year complimentary from the date of purchase. Afterwards, it's $8/mo or $80/year.
