Exclamation beep sound at 120 km/, can this be remove?

HI Lexus owners

Does anybody knows where the beep sound is coming when your reach 120 km/h? I want to remove it, its really annoying

my GS300 came from Dubai, I think its a standard there that it should have a beep sound when it reaches 120.

Anybody knows?

Thanks

Why did you import a GS from Dubai? You live in California where there are plenty of cheap GS's for sale.
