I love it and it's met my expectations in every way, except, Enform and the in-car tech.
When I purchased the car, Enform was the high-tech selling point.......I probably should scratched the surface and looked further into it, because Enform is a joke by today's standards.
If you look at Apple Carplay or Android Auto, these seem to be the gold standard for connectivity and in-car tech (and come standard in many other car brands) and Enform doesn't come close.
The iPhone App's interface looks like a 5 plus year old app and all it really does is allows you to upload an address to the (equally useless) in-car Navigation. The in-car Navigation is also rubbish compared to Google Maps, Apple Maps or Waze.
For the first month that I had the car, Pandora was part of Enform, then Pandora pulled out of Australia....so, that doesn't exist now. No news of the number 1 and 2 streaming music providers (Apple Music & Spotify) being integrated.
Any comments and/or does anyone know whether Lexus are looking into improving this area of their cars?

Hi Everyone,
Recently purchased a 2016 Lexus IS350 F Sport.
