Hmm, not sure about the fee in FL... I think if you pay MSRP, its all incorporated into the price.... When you start dealing from dealer invoice and above, thats when you will start seeing "the fees" broken down for you..

Thanks Joe Z...

JoeZ,

Nice Ride!! I just signed paperwork on my '08 IS250 yesterday at Sewell in Ft. Worth. It is supposed to be here next Thursday - can't wait!

When I was in yesterday, I asked about Nav updates. The current version on all '08 IS250's and IS350's is Ver 06.01. There is a NEW disc out Ver 07.01 http://beta.lexus-parts.com/parts_de...id=90141&all=Y If you or anyone get it, please start a post about the differences with it versus the older versions. I'm curious to see if there's a way to bypass the "5 second" rule!

Keep us updated with pics! I will be gladly adding mine next week! It sucks at night because I'm only sleeping a few hours and wake up excited to get my damn car! Hurry Up Thursday!!

Kevin

I believe Joe has already confirmed for us that 2008s have version 7, and not version 6. That wouldn't make much sense for them to release a car with the navigation software a year or two behind especially when one of the features of this year's model is the elimination of the "I Agree" screen which is only done in version 7.

I'd be interested in knowing if they got rid of the 'I agree' screen on the nav updates for the older generation navs. anyone know?

I think I am one of the 1st to have the New version .07.1 DVD in the IS350

They only way we are going to find out is if we put one of these New discs into an 06' or 07' and see what it does when the car is started up...

I guess it would be great if the "I Agree" button drops off for you guys/gals too!!!

I just spoke to the expert on the Navi at my Lexus dealership and he told me then when you update your Navi to 7.1 disc, the "I Agreed" will go away and be replaced by the 5 second warning screen.
