Too many threads on a "3IS" but it seems like people are expecting to see a redesign in the next year or so.

the 2012 IS does not have any changes. I am assuming the 2013 model is the all-new designed lexus IS. I am hoping that they are making the 3Is much more sportier.

2012 info is already released so it will be a 2013 model (or later)

The present model is perfect. They will never change it.

Shut this post down.

The fact that the is has another year before a full refresh was actually why i picked it over the 3 series. 7 years for a body is pretty impressive and should be great for resale value.
