IS350 do I have a sport package?
I own a used 2006 is350 and Im just trying to figure out if it is the sport package. It has wood grain in it which is supposed to be luxury only but I dont have the sun shade in the rear or a NAV. I do have the 18inch wheels tho. no special looking pedals tho. My car is stiff as f*k when I push on it but there is some body roll in the sharper turns. I wasn't told anything about my car from the dealer and i was a little clueless with lexus packages when i bought it. And not to mention the dealership was a little shady and didnt really know too much about the car...
The reason im asking is because I was looking to get fsport shocks and springs but people on another forum said that the sport suspension is actually better for handling due to the linear vs progressive springs.

It's a personal preference for linear vs progressive. I personally linear.
I believe the other members can tell you the indicators of how to tell visually in features if it is a sport package or not.
One way you can verify for sure is by contacting Lexus and provide them VIN# so they can look it up what the car has from the factory.

Not true. Sports package includes memory seats as well.
If it has wood grain, it definitely is NOT sports package. Sports package has aluminum trim, sports pedals, heated and ventilated seats, and memory settings. As was mentioned, you probably have the premium package.
If you don't like the body roll, get the F-sport sway bars. It helps immensely!

If your car has wood grain it does not have factory sports package in 06....the sports package has silver painted trim, sports pedals and does have memory seats...sits 1/2 inch lower from the factory and also has different part numbers from brakes and pads...I owned one for 3 years. Sports package combines some lux/prem package features. Hope this helps

Last time I checked on Sewell thats a $1200 change. I'm hoping he got a better deal than that though - waste of money in my mind.
any yes - I'm 100% sure it's Sport....

Yeah I have a lexus but don't have lexus money lol The only way I'd get f sport shocks is if I needed to replace mine which might be happening soon I guess due to my high mileage. I can justify the $350 for the front and rear sways but not $1.2k + for coils that don't last as long. Maybe if you knew of some below 1k then possibly.
