I also totally support your action. Unfortunatelly I can not participate as well to the meeting. Here in Greece you could hardly see any Lexus on the road before the introduction of the hybrid but now I can see at least one almost every day, so the only thing I would like to add to your requests is a request for a navigation map for Greece.

That's the point. For our european models, we pay more for less features...

Just have a look to the us user guide to understand how badly considered we are.

I don't understand why:

- we can't set the doors auto-locking mode (perhaps car jacking doesn't exist here?)

- one must unlock all the doors to have the backdoor open, and wait for the complete backdoor shutdown to be able to lock the car.

- when you park your car, the lights remain on - when set to auto - until you open the door.

- we can't have the automatic folding of rear view mirrors

- we are to cope with the standard power outlet (12 VDC) where us cars own also a 115 VAC

- one has decided we don't need the homelink feature, nor to choose to pay a premium for the adaptative cruise control

- lexus managers think we're so stupid we can't play with the same kind of bluetooth and gps systems than bmw or mercedes car drivers have, unless it's we're so smart we would all use the us tricks?

By the way, I'm amazed to see how quickly it is to have the car batteries drained when fully accelerating...

I agree with the above and I do not understand why European models have not the same options with the Americans.

I had previous a Jeep Grand Cherokee and what features I am missing are

1. The Auto Lock door features that can be set by the driver not the dealer.

2. The different Memory Key for each driver seat, memory and radio station preferences.

3. The driver can open close the other windows even with the window lock on

4. That you can fold the rear view mirrors without the key in the ignition

I was expecting Japanese Cars to be more technological advance than the Americans

In order to turn off the seatbelt buzzer.

You close the doors.

Press odometer button and turn on the engine.

You have 10 seconds exactly in order to put the drivers seatbelt.

If done correctly you will see a seatbelt buzzer on off message in the central display.

It worked with my RX400h.

The Navigation override do not work in my car.

I want also the automatic door lock which is available for the US model

I'll give this a try as this drives me mad!!!

Do you have to keep pressing the odometer button while turning the engine on or is it just one press?

Does this also turn off the passenger side as well?

Thanks
