Cassette player and headlight nozzles. I think the sunshade will be very useful with a baby.

BTW mix tapes are loved by all women. They think its so romantic and shows that you took some time to make the tape unlike setting up the computer to burn a CD. LOL
I actually just bought a unit that will allow me to convert my mix tapes and old house music vinyl to the computer.
The cassette player and the voice control, the car just does not understand me
I agree completely. I gave up on my voice control soon after I got the car. Completely useless.
In contrast, the "voice actions" function on my android phone understand my spoken commands perfectly, so the technology exists to do this right. I hope that we get a software upgrade on this at some point.

The younger women love mix CDs. They wouldn't know what to do with a tape, grandpa!
Yeah I must agree cassette has no use in my car, I hate the headlight washers although a good show off piece, when you wash the car and want to clean your windshield the whole system goes on everytime I hope it wont spray it does and I gotta go clean that bubbles mess. The voice control understands me don't use it another show off piece but other than that no real use. I def. use my sunshade always for a cop that begins to look my plate up I always like to surprise them by letting them see the back of my head. Naw I never use only when people sit in the back.
If I have to use my windshield wipers at night, I usually turn off my headlights momentarily to avoid the headlight washers, LOL, this concurrent ON design sounds so stupid by Lexus.
on/off will cause your bulb or HID kit to burn out sooner. Not worth it imho.
Another one for headlight washers. It causes too much mess than its worth. It's be great if you can turn them around, change nozzle pattern to stream instead of spray and shoot other cars with them though.
headlight washers saved my *** last year when driving in a snowstorm (HID don't generate enough heat to melt slush off the lenses), so I liked having them. Could lose the voice control and never miss it.
Funny that so many people don't like the radar cruise control. I absolutely love it and use it everyday. A feature that I thought would be neat, but never really use it the auto tilt down mirror in reverse. I guess that's what happens when you live in the 'burbs
One of my friends was screwing with the voice control in my car and asked for a "Blow job". The system displayed a list of hotels. I though it was very clever.
