Now January 2019 and still the same issue unresolved by Lexus. I just drove a 2018 Lexus and it has same nav defect. The Nav system is still defective and Lexus/Toyota has had 4 updates and still doesn't work correctly. The corporate management (or lack of) in Torrance and Irvine,CA don't respond to certified letters or calls to their 800#. My 2 portable Garmin gps units work perfectly but Lexus/Toyota doesn't. I even used my Garmin in the dealers car and his didn't work but my Garmin worked perfectly. I have written certified letters to the US Torrance HQ (VP Bracken) as well as their Western Region office (Irvine) and have never received a response. they just ignore me and the issue. Both the Riverside Dealership and the Newport dealership cannot fix the nav system. Lexus 800 # is totally useless. Navigation system goes to dead end road and says home is 0.2 miles away.

Incredibly disappointing

I just upgraded from an 09 GS and I feel I made a major mistake. I did an on line purchase because I figured since I loved my last 2 GSs I would love the new one- I don’t. Everything about it other than the performance feels cheapened. It feels smaller and more compact, less sexy and I have a sport model w red interior. The Mark Levinson system is half the system that’s in my 09! The dash and equipment is awkward and feels like an old lady car- like a Chrysler my mom had growing up. I had planned on keeping it for 7-8 years but I’ll be lucky to make it 2. I was selling my 09 but now I do t want to let it go.

This is the most expensive car I have bought, but I am confident about it because this delivers now and will keep delivering in coming years. Coming from a 5 series BMW this is a pure bliss, I never though a Lexus will be this much fun. More then enough power, awesome handling, more then enough tech you need and this pure luxury styling and high quality materials. I am so satisfied. Checks all the real world boxes you need. Value your money and get a GS..

More room and easier to get in and out. Bumper doesn't scrape everything. Much faster and funner to drive. Super comfortable and way more features like power rear shade folding mirrors etc
