Fooled me for a moment.
Why my seats are looking different?
They are also perforated in the areas I marked green...

Those look like the F Sport seats I've seen on basically every IS. They have perforated centers.

Check the picture earlier in this thread, it does not have those holes that I've marked green at the same spot...

I was told that from 2017 onwards that part is starting to be different, I'm not sure if that is a correct statement or not.

^^ May I ask what you are trying to find out? Maybe the earlier seats didn't have the ventilation but the one now certainly do and my 2015 had them too. Are you concerned your seats are not normal with having the holes? OR you wish it didn't have them?

I just wish to find out:
1. which variant is more durable;
2. And are they all Nuluxe-based.
