The non-Sport looks so much better. Lexus got it backwards with the front air intakes. They are larger on the non-Sport, which typically signifies more air being sucked in for higher performance/cooling. This should have been on the Sport model, but it's on the base model.

 

No one does launch videos better than Lexus Europe:

 

Wow it looks pretty good.

 

they remain the same as the 2IS

wow ... much better than the US reveal video lol.

 

Really nice ad! straight to the point.

 

looks so good. i hope these new pics shut the haters up

 

Great video indeed. Yeah I really don't care for all the artsy fartsy bits in the US launch video. Just show us the car!!

 

Superb video from Lexus EU

 

I took a snapshot of the European launch video in 1080p, where you can definitely see the cooled seat button being an option at 1:07.

(Funny to note that the interior shot shown before this particular scene does not have the cooled seat button at 1:04.)

 

no rear deck spoiler?

 

Built in rear deck spoiler! ... looks almost like a WALD

 

I prefer the front grille on the non-F-Sport IS. I like the horizontal line dividing the top and bottom. I normally root for the F-Sport models but I think the non-F-Sport grille fits the 3IS much better.

 

Never mind my video snapshot showing the cooled seat buttons. Lexus Europe has lots more better pics on their Facebook page.

Different wood panels, and for the first time, memory seats!!! (but only on the driver's side. )

 

i like non-fsport, but I have to admit that slowly F-sport is looking better and better, especially in this video.

what are those metal ***** in the corner next to the headlights, washers? They look cool.
