I just went to a "Super Luxury Car Show" in Vancouver and amongst the group including a Veyron, Scuderia 16M, Enzo, SLR 722S, Carrera GT, DBS, they also had an IS-F there! 
It was Starfire with Terra Cotta interior but I noticed on the dealer sheets displayed it said it was a 2010 model. I wasn't too sure though. The rear headrests don't look any different. The wheels are the same as mine, and being Terra Cotta, can't tell with the steering wheel since no blue insert. Not sure if there was another way to tell... perhaps with the VIN but I didn't know the codes.

^^ That's awesome.. No pics of this event??
The Terra-cotta interior would have had the matching Terra-cotta insert on the steering wheel...
If it was really a 2010, it would have had also had a matching Terra-Cotta Shift ****, which is new for 2010..
The only other way to tell, would have been the Foldable Rear headrests, Nav Display, Vin#, or sticker on the Differential..
MSRP Window sticker in the Glove Box, is sometimes a bonus....

Shall I post some of them here? Want some exotics pics or just the F? (and the models... )Shift **** was same as mine. Black/chrome. No Terra Cotta. So I guess it's a '09 then. Lying dealer!!

I wouldn't sign off on that if I were you... I'm almost positive they'll be releasing an update of sorts. Live traffic is not hardware specific, nor is it of much use anyways. The traffic is always the same here on any given day at any given time and more often than not there's no way around it seeing as we're essentially on an island and there's only two bridges leading into it.

CrazyMPG,
Those would be my first choice too
But since they are only non-domestic market options might be hard to find. That is unless you want to pay out the nose for them from Sewell Parts ($6124.75)
Lobuxracer had found a site that had these for much cheaper but they did not have any pics on there page so I am a little sceptical about them.

The 2010 Nav systems are HDD (Hard Disk Drive)
The 2008-2009's Nav systems are DVD based.
Would be nice for here in Los Angeles..

I was at my Lexus dealer this afternoon - without my camera. Was there with my wife. She ran over something and did some minor damage to the undercarriage of her ES. Any way they had a 10 IS-F. It was Mercury Metallic, like mine, same equipment, but this one had the Alpine White Interior. The first Alpine I have seen, and I didn't like it. The wheels aren't so bad in person, but I still prefer the older ones. I didn't have a lot of time study it. But a couple of questions that have been asked I can answer.
1. The RV mirror was the New one. They was also about 4 ISCs there, and they all had the old mirror.
2. The taillights are the same as the '08 and '09.
So, visually in my cursory look, the only differences I could see where the wheels and the mirror.
