Main points exterior wise. This is how i tell them apart. I know there are more

2006 = old bumpers and no turn signal mirror

2007-2008 = old bumpers with turn signal mirror

2009-2010 = new bumpers, new tailights, with turn signal mirror

2011 = redesign bumper new tailights / headlights.

Only '09+ has turn signal mirrors from the factory. You can distinguish '06 from '07 and '08 because it has no shark fin.

How come the 08 IS350 I have been looking at has a Shark Fin?

^ Because you read my sentence wrong. "You can distinguish '06 from '07 and '08 because it has no shark fin."

'06-'08 have the same tail lights. '09-'10 have different tail lights, and '11+ tail lights look like '09-'10 except with clear lenses over the turn signals. ALL 2IS tail lights are LED, but the '09+ ones have more, but smaller LEDs, giving it a different look.

^ Yup. You're probably just used to seeing the LED turn signal mod on '06-'08s.
