Default 2011 AWD Navi, but no LED Head Lights

So I'm helping my sister find an ISx50.

She stumbled upon a 2011 AWD with Navi, however the car has no LED head lamps... I'm guessing this is an option? If so, which package should we be looking for to get the LED head lights?

Better yet, should we negotiate that with the dealer, since that's all that the car would be missing to fit the bill.

Thanks in advance!

I believe the headlights with the LED strip came out in 2012.

I have a 2011 AWD with Led strip head lights. I always assumed all 2011+ came with LED headlights.

I know for a fact that 2011 have them, but I just didn't know that their were an option...

2011 has a yellowish LED as opposed to the 2012 that's more blueish.

Yep ,they were an option on the IS250's and standard on the 350's.
Here is the Lexus link to press release download of the 2011 IS product information. http://pressroom.lexus.com/article_d...rticle_id=2663

I highly doubt you'll negotiate them into upgrading to HID's from Halogen as it would be very expensive and involved on a used IS. Price however,is always negotiable.

I would say that is what makes the 11 unique, so dont be so quick to settle and keep on looking, Pretty sure youll find alot of nice deals since 11's should be coming off lease this year.

As was stated, it was optional on 2011+ IS250 models and standard on 2011+ IS350 models.
