I don't have it either. The F-Sport models don't have it which is really stupid because every car should come standard with it no matter what package you add on.

That's poor.

Here you get park assist with all but the base model.

The packs are Base, Comfort, F-sport and Executive.
Executive comes standard with everything except moon roof. The F-sport can be equipped with everything the Executive has.

A lot of suburban areas have a wide range of speed limits. The 8 speed transmission has the engine spinning around 3,000RPM at 50MPH, which is excessive if you're cruising at that speed even for a few minutes.

I like the F-sport wheels though, they are sharp, I'd still be swapping them out for a non-staggered setup though.
is this the clientele that lexus is dealing with these days? hah.

Or "I can't afford an IS250 but got one anyways now I can't pay the insurance cause my record is horrible", I guess so.
