Top part of the door is black but the mid part is grey and so is the armrest!

 

Looks like the red wood is gone ...

 

official pricing and specs are out on lexus.ca
it seems the 09 is cheaper then the 08

 

Looks like the financing rates went up though, especially for 60 months, from 3.9% to 8.2%

 

idk how up to date this thread is but heres a slide show of pics of the new 09 IS!

I like how the LED taillights light up at night, and I noticed the rear parking sensors on the bumper. Interior looks nice with the grey wood. Front end looks more grown up than the 06-08.

Overall, good facelift, but luckily I don't regret jumping all over my 08.

 

do any of you guys think it would be possible to get those 09' LED taillights on an 07' model?

 

rofl u really want them ?
i'll trade u mine 09 tailights for urs

What color is that? Smokey Granite?

 

just paint the whole bumper, why'd they leave the lip black... hahahhaaa

 

Yes, SGM it is.

 

There is a new color (4T5) but I can't figure out whether it's different from 1G0

 

Lol it's the new color "Fourty Five" - 4T5.

4T5 is Truffle Mica.

Why this color on the 2IS? I was never really a huge fan of it. Brown is the new Black as they say.

 

The top is Smoky Granite Mica. It's more of a "pure" gray.

The bottom is Truffle Mica, which is gray with brown tones.

 

Thanks, I did not realize it was Truffle Mica, maybe because of pics poor colours, the two colours look pretty similar, while 4T5 should be brown.:
