Steptronic Supercharged June 11, 2018 Share June 11, 2018 I am not in Lexus sales and in fact I am not Lexus fan also. 1) As other bros clarified, it is illegal in US or many European countries, Lexus would have just left as it is for Singapore too. Solution: Try to see if you can "code" it. I am sorry I do not have experience of doing this in Lexus. Other brands - yes. 2) I visited Lexus a couple of years back, in my experience, I would say the service was top-notch. If you complain about them, I am sure you have never bought from other agencies like PML 3) I am quite surprised on taking you to a wrong place. No idea on this. 4) One way, it is safe not to change seat positions while driving. Assume that husband is a six-footer and wife is five footer. if wife presses husband's memory and a PHV cuts in front! I am NOT a troller. I am from Singapore, hence voice command is not available. This feature of shutting down the system when car is in motion is not a legal requirement here in Singapore and it is silly as the passenger can always be the one to change the destination, not necessarily the driver. I am very unhappy with Lexus due to the attitude of the staff. They acknowledged that their system have problems and yet refused to do anything for the customer and this car caused me a lot of money. It is not possible to have videos as proof as the GPS is just leading me to the wrong place and the sales manager had the cheek to say that doing an update will NOT help. I asked him why do they have updates to the GPS then if it is pointless to update the system? With regard to the chair, I am referring to the memory positions set - these don't work when car is in motion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DACH Supersonic June 14, 2018 Share June 14, 2018 GS on chopping board for very long time. Confirm RIP. By sales number, GS and probably RC should kena. IS should survive for at least 1 more new gen. With the ES getting bigger, the GS makes no sense these days. It is like cannibalising each other sales. IS is a 3 series and C class competitor. They don't have to axe it. They have to improve it to make it more exciting. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistergoh 2nd Gear June 15, 2018 Share June 15, 2018 wonder if BM will have any clearance sale for their GS stock ? Most likely but then again, unlikely to advertise big big. Just have to try your luck when u visit their showroom. My friend got a super deal when he walked in last year and the SE offer him a IS at a super attractive deal. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cook123 Supercharged June 15, 2018 Share June 15, 2018 I own a es250 the facelift one. No complaints about the car. Iirc the sale person told me that the new model will come out in 2020 He sounded very sure when I asked him again. This was one consideration why I bought it As it was 2016 then, so another 4yrs to go before it goes a total model change A few weeks ago, he messaged me that the all new es will be in the showroom in October. Either he himself din know it then or he just faking I dunno Anyway, thankfully it’s been a problem free car Super reliable Takes me to anywhere I want to go, anytime 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dna_engine 3rd Gear June 25, 2018 Share June 25, 2018 Its a beatiful experience to drive my lexus ES.The car is well designed both interior and exterior ad the engine is great.I want to know who makes lexus ."Lexus vehicles are largely produced in Japan, with manufacturing centered in the Chūbu and Kyūshū regions, and in particular at Toyota's Tahara, Aichi, Chūbu and Miyata, Fukuoka, Kyūshū plants. Assembly of the first Lexus built outside the country, the Ontario, Canada-produced RX 330, began in 2003." - Wikipedia Basically Lexus are made in Toyota factories and the actual cost of manufacturing is only 20% more compared to tbe similar Toyota models (e.g. OMV of NX300 is about 40K and Harrier is about 33K). As to why we are paying 30-40% premium for Lexus... There are a lot of different theories. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
