The triple LED headlights are available in the US, they're just not a very common option. I was going to special order a vehicle with them, but the leverage that gives the dealer wasn't worth it.

$1,795 option. Part of the Security System+ package.

YESSS!! This is the one I want, my lease is almost up and I'm looking to get another GS but I need these headlights! At first I thought it was just for the AWD model because on youtube only that one had it but I guess not. Can you offer any more insight on how to get a GS w/ those headlights?

There was only 1 in the entire USA, as of 3 weeks ago. Caviar with Red interior F-Sport. No idea if it is still available.

4 months to order...cutoff date is the 20th of each month, so you have 2 weeks to get the order in. The issue was, you're not going to be able to negotiate much on the price. Best my dealer was going to do was 3% off MSRP. Then they wanted $1,500 deposit. By the time the car actually gets here, rates could be MUCH lower. Gives the dealer too much leverage.

Nope, it's an F-Sport. I took that photo from the Car & Driver article.
