Canadian get USB color for F-Sport IS as well.

However, Lexus Canada has put emphasis on AWD models and hence if you want to get some features such as Mark Levinson audio, you have to get the AWD models.

I've seen many other car makers offer features on Euro spec vehicles and not on US spec vehicles. Even American brand vehicles built in the US and sent overseas.

To be honest though:
I don't like it............because if the LED rear foglamp is only on the driver side and you only end up with one reverse light at the back.

The result:
You end up with an asymmetric butt







The USDM and JDM Japan models use two reverse lights as standard. I'd rather have those instead thank you very much.
