Default No Navigation in Canada?

Just curious about pricing on the nav system in Canada, but can't find any reference to it on the lexus.ca site. Whats up with that?

I have the same question, just bought a 13 GS350 and the software is very poor in Toronto. Is there a software DVD I can buy?

Please note that the gps receivers have gone through significant improvements and are not backwards compatible.

There are two issues ,,, regional data and old/stale data.

Early RXs had regional gps data due to limitation of capacity. If I am not mistaken, even USA map was broken into 4 regions. In newer systems the capacity was increased.

I would suggest that you call your local dealerships with your model number and vin and ask them for the latest software and for the region you drive your vehicle.
