Has anyone seen a newer GS with no navigation? I wonder if they exists. Does anyone on this site own a GS with no navi?
Also I saw a GS this past wknd It was a 3rd gen GS 300 he had angel headlights? Probably custom made anyone ever see this also?(the car was in CT a white one with really dark tints.)

I've seen one - they exist, but still have the info screen (just no nav) if I recall correctly.

This is a non nav version GS. It's missing the obvious buttons for the NAV functions:
Here are some really old pics I took when we first drove the 06 GS back in 2005.

Yea, many here in texas when I was looking at my dealership as well. I picked up a GS350 without NAV. It still has the full touch screen display. The only thing missing is the NAV, but I've lived in Houston for 15 years and know my way around here with no problems and would never take road trips since I prefer to fly. NAV would have just been a waste of about $2500 for me.

I won't even consider a car without navigation, not that I get lost, I am just too used to it, I use it exclusively even to go/from work/home to judge how much time/distance I have left so I can see if I'll be late.
but that's just me.

I'm the exact opposite. I would never spend that extra money on a feature that I would never ever use. Even though it looks "cooler" with NAV on some cars. The GS comes standard with a touch screen, so I got the "cool" look without having to spend the extra $2500 - $3000 on something I wouldn't use.

Same. You already got the touchscreen. Why spend an extra few K for a feature that you wouldn't really use. Besides, it bothers me that you can get more features out of an aftermarket unit that costs about $100.

I do a lot of driving with my GS although it sits in the garage for the main part of the work week. I know my way around but it's nice to have the aid of the NAV when you're needing to take shortcuts in unfamiliar places. Some people can live with or without it. I'm one that could do without it, but now that I have NAV in my cars, it's almost hard to switch back.
