I wonder how some 19" FSports from the 4GS would look on a lowered 3IS...hmmm
even the Ford Fusion can be had with 19s...I'm sure Lexus will add 19s at some point.

Being in Canada, I wish the features available on the other side of the border - Lexus Enform and the apps are available to us.. When a person does import from Canada into US, would the US dealerships honor the warranty as well as reloading the Lexus Enform and the apps? I think even if they do, the Enform button is missing inside the car. So IMO, it is not worth it especially when you also consider the car is more expensive in Canada. Just my 2 cents.
