i know the LS mirros fold in...so its not a new feature. whether or not there is an auto button/manual on the LS, i dont know.
as for that same picture...i imagine the lock/unlock button isnt intuitive to press....
i also want to know in that picture (the rest of th entire door panel), if its a great sheet of leather or hard plastic vinyl
im also guessing the button you think is the manual override is actually the fold down tilt feature

Here's the door of my LS460L, & not the entire door is covered with leather.
The panel beneath the upper wood trim surrounding the door handle and the speaker is vinyl, & the lower part of the door most of which is not shown in the picture is also vinyl. Only the middle portion with the stitchings is real leather.

Here's the door of the most expensive Lexus SUV, the LX570, I think it has less leather on the door than the LS, only the armrest/doorhandle part with the stitchings is leather I think ...

Just like leather on my GS350 - it definetly does not look as good as the leather on that LS which looks like you could eat it :-)

p.s. there is no way that 2010 RX will have more leather than GS... but at the same time, its interior is WAY beyond current RX, and a lot of parts are taken from GS (seats, shifter...)

It has the same amount of wood as the current gen RX though. There is wood available on the center console, steering wheel, on all 4 door panels, and also on the rear armrest.

Let me be more precise; it has roughly the same amount of wood as the current RX. Considerably less, hardly.

I can't wait to see if anyone complains about the aluminum in the new TL interior during really cold winter days and during really hot summer months.

My goodness. Might call it nitpicking, but I dont know how they can call this interior an upgrade when Kias have more interesting door panels than that. 
I cant believe they couldnt add atleast one stitch to break up that sea of leather. Just one!!
This truck is lacking.......everywhere for me. Everytime I open up this thread I think it will somehow start to look better, but it only gets worse.
