Default Audi-like LED daytime lights



This picture suggests that the 2011 model will have LED daytime running lights along the bottom of the headlights. I personally do not like the idea.

I do like the minor face-lift and new wheels. Not too sure about those LED DRLs though.

There's a thread that started awhile back about this...

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-facelift.html

I personally ain't digging it either, but everyone has their own tastes and I ain't gonna knock it

It looks cool, but not worth upgrading I feel.

I'm actually thinking about getting a new IS350 later this year so I think I'll wait for the 2011 instead of getting 2010 right now. And hey, 2011 comes with the new headlights too.

I think those Audi style lights look super mean on the IS. This is also coming from a guy that drove an Audi for 4 years up until like a month ago : / . (Except my Audi was to old to even have those bomb *** lights)

I'm sure the LED Daytime Lights will be on an option on the IS, just like it is on every other car with LED Daytime Lights.

They are only options on all the other cars because the Germans are the only ones offering them, and they are more likely to nickel and dime you on options (how many German cars have smart key standard???).

Won't matter if it's an option anyway--with the Lexus "popular" packages way of selling, you'll have to special order NOT to get them.
