DVD NAV are option and there is also a 9GB HD option for later upgrades.
Again if you are looking for interfacing say a Valentine1 into the driver display.. BMW has options.. Lexus not so much due to the MOST bus. Quote:

decent interior, enough space, decent power merging and accelerating. Suspsneions is pretty decent. If you are looking for a DK race car, no this is not it. BEcause its a fucking 4 door saloon

BEcause its a fucking 4 door saloon | You can buy an 09 TL fully loaded to the tits for 23k from the states (my buddy called me asking if i wanted it who lives in seattle)
Also I'd say the tl has probably the best space in class. I have a hard time fitting in cars since im 6"1 with a wide frame.
edit: Also didn't answer your question.
I have 12 grand left on the lease and a buyout of 30 grand. I'd rather just buy a car for 25k canadian, that is nicer. I'm starting to lean on the m3 after reading review on how the is350 is a numb driving car.

BEcause its a fucking 4 door saloon | Believe me the car handles capably, the ride is not too soft and not too firm, but the steering is absolutely horrible and the biggest let down, I drove one for 6 months, Even after the service bulletins/recalls the steering still was imprecise and inconsistent, plus the horrible gas mileage that everyone claims is hard to ignore. The engine sounds great though when you floor it and the gps is great to use, great highway car, good on gas on the highway and rear legroom is amazing, but even when you're going on offramps etc over 50km/h you can't help but feel the steering wheel's lack of confidence. The interior was definitely best in class though, i have to give acura credit for that

But at least the highway driving is good on gas around 7L/100km for me
Maybe I had a particularly bad car?
Oh damn godwin busted my old alias!

IMO i find that the IS350 is a very nice car. It is probably one of the more affordable cars from japan, that would some European equivalence. Be it that the car doesn't handle or drive like an M3, its still a nice car.
Which package for the IS are you looking at?
