How lexus of them.

I like the Non-Navi model, but it reminds me of the Lexus RX330.. Does anyone else think the same way?

You dont make sense, its just a center screen, this one is LED not LCD like RX..

thats like saying Lexus had side airbags first so they are the upholder of the technology..

Wanna bet how many cars will have DVD-a soon and Bluetooth..

You can't go around saying Acura Invented DVD-A..

I know that, and thats why I said:

Since Acura is the first car in USA to have 5.1 DVD Audio in the car..

I never stated the Acura was the first for Bluetooth.

Where is this going? Everyone copies everyone else. That's how things work.

Ya Exactly, You have to!

Say Honda/Acura releases the first Intelligent Cruise Control, does that mean Toyota/Lexus can't and Nissan/Infiniti Cant?

Of Course they can, Nissan might have invented it for all we know, or Lexus could have had the technology for years..

God knows the Intelligent Cruise Control was supposed to appear in the 99 TL but it never happend, so I mean You can't give rights to a feature to one company..
