1. No LEDs for the vanity mirror. its in the roof, when you pull down the vanity mirror, it turns on. The mirror also has a sliding cover.
2. They put the WARNINGS inside the sunshade! On the 2nd gen GS they are outside the sunshade.

where else would you put ur nickels, dimes, and quarters?

This is genius. Hiding away controls not often used. Buttons= dashboard clutter, ergonomic disasters. I-drive tries to do away with buttons. This simply hides them. The industry will follow this trend. Watch.

Good question. You still have your coin/key tray behind the hidden controls

Not sure I understand. You just pull it down.
Here is a new 18" wheel, 245-40-18, Dunlop tires.

Rear door with map pockets (so buddies can drop their taco wraps in) . They do not open like the fronts.

Thanks B.
The interior is gorgous. It feels and looks sporty, the lines in the dash, the console tilted towards the driver, the 3 spoke wheel, the seats, the 3 pod gauges.

The new V-6. well u can't see it. The engine cover looks just like the GS 430 engine cover. It will all have to come off to fit STBs etc etc.
