Canadian 2014 IS Pics
I dropped by Open Road Richmond and saw the 2014. There are some differences between the Canadian and US models.
One of the noticeable ones is that headlight washers is standard and no option for LED projectors. Taken with my cell, didn't have my camera on me.

Nice! Are you planning to order one? I went there a few weeks back when I was to order IS250 AWD Executive F sport.
They offered a 300 $ off MSRP. Regency Lexus offered a better deal so I ordered from them. They also have a USB is250 awd for test drive
oh and the headlamp washers don't look too good :s

according to lexus canada's website the LED headlights are only available on the is350 AWD Excecutive package.
I hope someone eventually come's up with a paint matched cap to sell to us canadian's so we can remove those stupid headlamp washers.

The odd thing is that the Lexus Canada catalog which I have makes no reference to the LED Headlamps at all on any of the packages.

Actually LED headlamp is available as an option for regular IS in Canada. Unfortunately, it is only in the top package (Executive package) for regular IS350 AWD.

Wondering if one could mod the car and switch it to use LED lamps! Jeff?

Personally, doesn't bother me too much, but what I may do is color coordinate them with the bumper at some point.

Would be expensive. By the way, I finally came across one with LED headlamp (regular IS350 AWD) in a showroom and there is another 3IS with HID headlamps. After opening the hood, you should see the covers to the back it of the headlights are different. - the HID headlight has a metal back cover whereas the LED headlight has a regular plastic one that you see in 2IS.

I haven't been able to look extensively into it (I am), but it looks like if you were to buy the parts I think you'd need to do the conversion to LED's from a dealer in the USA that gives a good discount, you'd probably be looking at about $2800 for the parts to do the conversion.
