I thought 2IS's don't exist in Japan?
Or am I just horribly mistaken? (It wouldn't be the first time)
2IS exists in Japan!

See my updated post, there is only one style. The newer cars moved the lights to the mirrors (which we also got on 09+ models).

Yes in Japan the current IS model is the first generation for Japan, Lexus didn't exist in Japan until 2005.

In Japan, they change it to the LS600h one. Because the side marker is LED.
