I just looked at Sewell Lexus web site Lexus-parts.com and saw that they have removed the Sirius from their site. Any news on availablity or has Toyota/Lexus removed this from their option list like they did the HKS exhaust??

I came across the same thing when you do the Build your Lexus on their site. I better be able to get Sirius on the nav screen. That's just lame.

Stop torturing yourself and get XM.

I already have XM. I hate it, I went from getting 3 Rock station free to paying for XM to get 5. A buddy of mine has Sirius and he has 15 Rock stations. I guess the question of getting XM or Sirius depends on musical taste. I prefer Sirius, now it just a matter of the unit being release. Anybody have any info on the Toyota/Lexus plans for the Sirius?????

conekiller

Huh?

XM doesn't have 5 Rock stations, they have 14. Besides...how many ways can you split up a genre? Of the 14-15 rock stations on either provider, you honestly think you'll be listening to all of them?

So is sirius not gonna be available for hte IS??? If not i want to get XM ASAP . . . but id rather have sirius!!!

XM has a lot of Christian Rock stations and B sides Rock. Not that there is anything wrong with that but I prefer mainstream Alternative rock and 70-80 rock which limits me to 5 stations on XM. Sirius is geared more toward Alternative Rock meaning more stations. Plus we have SAT1 and SAT2 so you can program a lot of stations enough for most of those stations we discussing.

Hi Guys,

I am in Vancouver, BC but want to drive down to Seattle to get Sirius installed as I already have a US subscription. Most likely from this, it means that Sirius will not be offered on the IS. If so, does anyone have any experience with aftermarket radios that while may not integrate fully with the exsisting ML system, still can be installed neatly and are user friendly?

Thanks.

Strange...I don't see any Christian rock stations in there. The C-word doesn't even appear on the page.

Well conekiller you are obviously an XM fan. I am not here to sway any opinions just here to find out if Sirius is going to come out with a unit for the IS, simply my personal preference. BUMP to the TOP.....

But to be on the funny side I make my last argument.
XM= Opera Winfrey
Sirius= Howard Stern

Enough said, LOL

I'm would get XM for the commercial free stations, but MUST get Sirius for the NFL games and talk. Plus they've got Howard, Playboy and Maxim.... XM doesn't come close

conekiller

Of course I'm an XM fan. If you're not here to sway any opinions at least post accurate information. Thus far you've done very little of it.

Howard blows, BTW.

No kidding. I have Sirius in 2 of my cars and my wife has XM in her Acura. I took her car one day and I think there were 42 country stations and all the "rock" stations were poppy hollerbackgirl nonsense. And Opie and Anthony have NOTHING on Stern.

To get back on topic, does anybody know for sure if Sirius is definitely not an option anymore for 2006 IS?

IF it's not, we need to come up with the best way to integrate some aftermarket radio with ML.

I had Sirius in my previous car, and I miss it . I loved the NFL channel 124
