Our available third-row seating is foldable, removable and leather-trimmed, giving you the luxury of transporting eight people in high style4.
Passengers will have their own air conditioning and audio systems, the latter complete with a headphone jack16. Should you choose to add a Rear-Seat
Entertainment System (RSES), your passengers will have their own private cinema, as well.
With the help of Mark Levinson®5, a company known for designing six-figure home-audio systems, we custom-designed a 14-speaker, 240-watt
Premium Audio System that features an in-dash, six-disc CD auto-changer, available in the GX. Though the sound might say “live concert,” you can, of
course, stop the music any time you wish.

2006 LEXUS GX Interior (Continued)
Embarking on a great adventure needn’t mean leaving
your standards behind. In fact, with its vast array of
comforts and conveniences, the GX may raise those
standards considerably. As you would expect of a Lexus,
sumptuous, expertly crafted leather and fine wood
accents abound. But our aim is to go beyond simply
meeting your expectations. This aim is achieved with
such features as heated front seats with variable settings,
lumbar support for both driver and front passenger, dual-
zone climate control for personalized temperature zones
and an interior air filter to put plenty of distance between
you and unpleasant dust, pollen and odors.
Front seats are heated with variable settings, and outside
mirrors are heated to prevent fogging and maintain clarity
in freezing conditions. The instrument panel displays a temperature gauge, barometer and altimeter to let you
know when the weather actually becomes interesting. A compass in the rearview mirror can keep you on
track, should the direction you’re headed concern you. Additionally, because not all escapades go exactly as
planned, the GX always brings along first aid and tool kits. So you might say the GX is prepared for anything.
A nice quality in a vehicle driven by those with an adventurous side.

2006 LEXUS GX DVD Navigation System and Bluetooth
®
To help keep you on course, the GX is available
with the Lexus voice-activated DVD Navigation
System7. This GPS satellite-linked system can direct
you to over five million preprogrammed points of
interest in the contiguous U.S. and major cities in
Canada, displaying full-color maps on a screen in
the instrument panel. Use the system’s database to
find gas stations, ATMs, hotels, airports—it can even
recommend, for example, a seafood restaurant.
With the addition of a Bluetooth®-compatible
phone8, you can call ahead using only your voice
to dial.
For even more self-assurance, the GX is available
with a backup camera9. This ingenious feature,

aided by a tiny lens at the rear of the vehicle, will
project a color image of the area to your NAV
screen the moment you place the GX in reverse. In
this way the GX can provide you with a picture of
objects you might otherwise miss.

2006 LEXUS GX Safety
The GX is prepared, even when you are not. To begin with, it has been designed to help manage impact energy in a variety of emergency situations,
including frontal impacts, offset frontal impacts and side impacts. In such situations, its strong, welded-steel body-and-ladder frame helps maintain
the shape and integrity of the chassis and cabin. Scientifically designed, impact-absorbing materials in the structure of the GX will help offset the
energy generated by a collision. Furthermore, each door has been reinforced with beams to help provide side-impact protection. Roll-Sensing Curtain
Airbags (RSCA)10 deploy in the event of a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force. (For off-road situations you can temporarily disable the RSCA.)
These work in conjunction with the seat-mounted side airbags10. The GX also comes standard with a Tire Pressure Monitor System11, which uses audio
and visual clues to alert you if your tire pressure is critically below the optimal range.

2006 LEXUS GX Safety (Continued)
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)12 senses, and helps correct, a loss of traction in turns. Active Traction Control (A-
TRAC) directs power to those wheels with the best traction to help control wheelspin on surfaces like mud, sand and ice.
Should you require hard braking on a slippery surface, an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), Brake Assist13 and Electronic
Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) can be counted on to help you maintain control.
To help control a loss of traction in turns, the GX employs Vehicle Stability Control (VSC). This perceptive technology uses sensors to monitor factors
such as wheel speed, steering-wheel angle and your rate of travel in order to detect a skid. Should a loss of traction be detected, WSC instantly
determines which action’s needed—whether it be the application of brakes to individual wheels or a reduction of throttle—and then automatically
implements that action.

2006 LEXUSGX Ownership Experience
A moment, if you will. It seems so inconsequential: a moment. And yet it’s often the small
moments, the ones you experience while getting from here to there, that can make your
life richer. Fourteen years ago we began with this insight when we set out to build the
kind of luxury automobiles that attend to your every need—to help you make the most
of every moment. When you drive a Lexus, you drive something unique. You’ll feel it in
our cars. You’ll feel it the instant you walk into our dealerships. And if we’ve done our
job, there’s a good chance you’ll feel it when you least expect it. It’s why we pursue
perfection—so you can pursue living.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Your total and complete satisfaction is our highest priority. Which is why you may find
our dealerships provide such amenities as offices you can use for business, free pickup
and delivery, service loaner vehicles, complimentary car washes, concierge services and
even 24-hour emergency Roadside Assistance* for your first four years of ownership.
RESPONSIBLE THINKING
As part of an effort to reduce emissions whenever possible, every Lexus vehicle built since 2004 has been certified as wither a Low-Emission Vehicle
(LEV), Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle (ULEV or ULEV II) or Super Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle (SULEV).
VALUE/DEPENDABILITY/QUALITY
Our commitment to build the finest vehicles in the world has not wavered since our inception. Seen in such ways as projected low repair costs and
high retained value, our pursuit of perfection has never been stronger.

FOOTNOTES & DISCLAIMERS
1. DAC is designed to help the driver maintain vehicle control and speed on steep downhill descents. HAC is designed to help minimize backward rolling on steep ascents. Neither system is a substitute for safe driving judgment and
practices. Factors including speed, grade, surface conditi ons and driver input can all affect whether DAC and HAC will be effec tive in preventing a loss of control. Please see your Owner ’s Manual for further details. 2 .Ratings achieved
using the required premium unleaded gaso line with an octane of 91 or higher. If premium fuel i s not used, performance will de crease. 3. TORSEN® is a registered trademark of Zexel Torsen, Inc. 4. Eight-pa ssenger seating requires available
third-row seat. 5. Mark Levinson is a registered trademark of Harman International Industr ies, Incorporated . 6 . Continuous average power, all channels driven, at 0.01% THD; 20-20,000 Hz. 7. The Lexus DVD Navigation System is
designed to assist in lo cating an address or point of in terest. Discrep ancies may be encountered between the system and your actual location. Chang es in street names, road closures , traf fic flow or other road system changes may affect
the accuracy of the mapping software. Rely upon your common sense to decide whether or not to follow a speci fied route. Detailed coverage not available in every city. Optional periodic geographic updates available at an additio nal cos t.
See your Navigation System O wner’s Manual and your Lexus dealer for further details. 8. While there are several Bluetooth® phones in the market, Lexus recommends the phones listed on its Web site because they have been tested
and meet Lexus’ high standards for voice quality and functionality. Note that the recommendat ion of Lexus is not a wa rranty of the performance for any phone and that some problems may occur with any type of handset based on the
service coverage available in your area. 9. The backup camera, available only with the n avigation system, does not provide a comprehensive view o f the entire rear area of the vehicle. You should also look around outside your vehicle and
use your mirrors t o confirm rearward clearance. Cold weather will limit effectiven ess and view may become cloudy. 10. The Lexus driver ’s airbags and front passenger’s airbags, front seat-mounted side airbags and side curtain airbags
are Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS). T he driver’s and front passenger’s airba gs are designed to deploy in severe (usually frontal) collisions where the magnitude and duration of the forward decel eration of the vehicle exceed t he
design threshold level. The side airbags and side curtain a irbags are de signed to deploy in certain types of severe side-impact collisi ons. The side curtain a irbags are Rol l-Sensing Curtain Airbags (RSCA) and are designed to deploy at a
severe tilt degree, roll or la teral G-force. In all other accidents, the airbags will not deploy. To decrease the risk of injury from a deploying airbag, always wear your seatbelt, sit upright in the m iddle of the seat, and do no t lean again st the
door. Do not put objects in fro nt of an airbag or around the seatback. Do not use a rearward-facing child seat in any front passenger seat. The force of a deploying airbag SRS may cause serio us injury or death. Please see your Owner ’s Manual for further instructions. Vehicle complies with “advanced ai rbags” requirements of FMVSS 208. 11 . The Lexus Tire Pressure Monitor System alerts the driver when tire pressure is critical ly low. For optimal tire wea r and performance,
tire pressure should be checked regularly with a gauge; do not rely solely on the monitor system. Please see your O wner’s Manual for details. 12. Lexus Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) is an electronic system designed to help the driver
maintain vehicle control under adverse conditions. It is not a sub stitute for safe driving practices. Fac tors including speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all af fect whether VSC will be effective in preventing a loss of control.
Please see your Owner’s Manual for further details. 13. Brake Assist is designed to help the dr iver take full advantage of the be nefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braki ng effectiveness also depends on proper brakesystem maintenance and tire and road conditions. 14 . Before towing, confirm your vehicle and trailer a re comp atible, hooked up properly and you have any necessary additional equipment. Do not exceed any weight ratings and follow all
instructions and cautions from your trailer hit ch manufacturer and in your Lexus vehicle Ow ner’s Manual. The maximum amount you can tow depends on the total weight of any cargo, occupants and available equipment. 15. Contact with
