Lexus gives the 2021 LS one big change and a bunch of minor updates.

What do you guys think about the new touchscreen? I haven't seen one in person yet, but from the pictures it looks like it ruins the lines of the dash and clashes with that swept look they were trying to achieve. Almost looks like somebody bought a Garmin aftermarket and stuck it on top of the dash. Please tell me I'm wrong. Has anyone actually seen one in the flesh yet?

I can't disagree lol. I drove a 2019 for 2 weeks and loved the interior. I don't know how I feel about the screen yet on the 2021.

When you do, please take pictures of what's behind that screen to fill in the void.

Any improvement over the key pad's functionality would be welcomed. Scrolling through the seat functionalities and audio selections with an iPod is a nightmare. Also, how do you rename a "favorite?" A list of numerical locations is useless!
