What does "No Package" Look Like?
I'm configuring a 350 and I kind of just want a barebones package. But I can't find any pictures of the "no package" option. I'd like to know what the interior looks like at least.

its pretty simple, search google for is250/350
if it has navigation its obviously not what your looking for, if it doesnt wahhhla.
they all look the same no matter what package
(excluding the fsport and isf ofcourse)
the exterior
interior
except those pedals.

Thanks guys! Yeah, that interior picture is exactly what I was looking for.
The reason I'm interested in the base 350 is 1) You don't know how badly I want to go 0-60 in 5.x seconds dressed in ultrasonic blue 2) I have a Prius and am not impressed by the Lexus nav, back up cams, or any other bells and whistles. Overall fit and finish of the Lexus, even base model, will be better than a Toyota anyway. 3) I am cheap and a 350 base model still has the same engine and exterior.
Regarding the wheels...I don't care either. I plan to drop the car on coils and replace the rims and add ground effects anyway. Also, does anyone know if there's such thing as a carbon fiber trunk spoiler for the 250/350 (like the Wald CF trunk for IS-F)?
And finally, regarding the seats - I never understood the point of the F-sport suede seats. Isn't leather better??

What you are asking for is more like a special order because the dealership always has them in packages. The pricing for special order, you won't get as much of a deal than getting something which is available and in the region.
I believe there is two different kinds of F-Sport seats, one which is the micro fiber and the other which is the leather one (ie. Lexus Japan, and possibly Lexus Canada).

No dealer will bring a, "no package" car into inventory. When you build a car on the Lexus website you will have packages to select from. You have to special order a car with nothing added. Anticipate 4-5 months arrival. I didn't want nav and the X package was only available in the Southeast via special order. I searched other regions and found X packages with nav. Bottom line, I received what I wanted and paid less than what was on lots. I plan on keeping the car for 8 years so the resale decline for not having nav doesn't concern me. Most smartphones have GPS and a Garmin is $200. I agree the nav is nice and the backup camera is killer but paying over $2k for GPS was hard for me to justify. If the OP plans on turning the car in less than 3 years I think he should order the nav since a 350 sans nav will be a tough sell. The price you pay will vary a lot from dealer to dealer. Some dealers will not mess around with special orders while others have no problem. The dealer risk is you place a refundable deposit , the car is produced and you cancel. Then the dealer has an odd ball car on the lot. Almost every customer will not want the car without nav or at least a package so the car will sit for a long time.
