Differences between 2011 and 2012 IS 250
I am looking to purchase a brand new Lexus IS 250. The local dealer has a new 2011 IS 250 in stock. I was going to purchase a 2012 model but the dealer is offering the 2011 for 3-4K less than the 2012. It is brand new and I am torn on what to do. What are the main differences between the two cars? And in terms of body styling what are the main differences? EX: Headlights. Pictures would be welcome. Thanks.

Also the 2011 headlights have a matte black housing and are more prone To the bubbling defect. The 2012 headlights have a glossy black housing and what's been dubbed as "eyelashes" a clear swirl on the lense that's supposed to prevent the bubbling but a few members still have experienced it. And finally I think The 2011 tail lights have Amber on the corners while 2012 is a clear pink
