Default USB IS F-Sport (Canadian model) Pictures

I dropped by Regency Lexus in Vancouver to get pictures of the USB they had. Took pics using my camera phone since I don't have my camera on me; they turned out quite well since it was a sunny day.

Sango: Looks cool. Were most of the 2014 IS vehicles in AWD when you visited the dealerships?

How much does it cost to get the LED headlights?

There is more AWD than RWD cars there.

Same case in Greater Toronto Area. I only came across one IS250 base form. All others are either IS250 or IS350 AWD. I have yet to see one IS350 RWD, F Sport or regular.

I really hope they make this color available in the US spec version soon. It looks great and every car I've owned so far has been either black or white. This would be a nice change of pace.

Love it sooooooo much, thanks for taking the time to get these shots! Are you going to buy it? Sure hope there will be a way for me to get my hands on one.

Yeah. I've all but decided to hold off until we see if the US configurations expand any. May end up waiting on 2015.

No they're from the factory, i.e. this one has LED headlights:

The one in your photos does not:



It just has the single standard projector.

I am with you, I will keep the one I have as long as I can or until I can get USB. Who knows, maybe they will let us put leather ventilated seats and fogs in the 15 F sport. My lease isn't up until next July, I have some time.

What you posted there is the Japanese specification of the car which is not applicable to the Canadian specification.

This is different because my initial reply to you is in reference the the Canadian cars. Only 350 AWD F-Sport Executive package will have LED projectors, all the others will not for Canada, which was why I was asking about modding it as in getting the OEM LED projectors and swapping it into the cars which have the HID projectors. The picture I taken is the AWD IS250 F-Sport (not sure it was the premium one).
