PCS is optional as stated in the PR.

What we don't know is how much the option will cost. Most speculate it's gonna cost the same $2,850 as it does on the GS and I tend to agree.

Yeah PCS is a rare find. It's already difficult to find one for a GS let alone the new IS unless you custom order and wait for it.

It is possible that the Premium Luxury Plus Package is actually standard on the IS250 AWD, which would explain the higher price. We'll have to wait and see...

so there is still a chance I can get one with navi for around 36-37k??? I hope this is the case.

I hope this is true too (although I highly doubt it comes with the Premium Luxury Plus Package).

That is why I got confused: there were no official pricing for the PCS, so I wrongfully assumed that PCS was standard. My bad...

then dont buy IS250 AWD? And sorry, you cant get similar Audi for same price, 4cly 2.0T costs about the same with similar options - 35ki (Lexus still has more luxury items base).

You cant even buy "loaded" AWD A4 2.0T...
