Default new JDM GS gets sidemarkers, but none for the US market?
So first off they get the 3.5 engine, and now I just noticed that the JDM GS has sidemarkers, and the US vehicles don't. Doesn't anyone find it strange that there is no side markers, or signals in the rear view mirrors?

That's nothing new. US market Lexus' already meet the SAE/DOT requirements for safety reflectors on the vehicles.

Side markers are only a requirement outside the US. Been that way for a long time.
