I agree about color selection. My thinking is with a 2 or 3 year lease you get to then switch to the next model change at the end.

Bumping for the OP because we now know exactly what the 2016s have to offer: http://pressroom.lexus.com/releases/...m?sf11314845=1

Im looking at a 2015 IS350 because of the amazing deals and I don't have time to wait for a 2016 model but I can't seem to find any 2015 350 F-Sports with ML and VGRS in any color. Are they all gone or are the online inventory/build-a-lexus systems not exact?

I'd think VGRS with F-Sports are a bit more rare. You might need to talk to a dealer to see if there are any available in the surrounding area

VGRS

When driving at speed in a straight line, we don't want the car to change direction with every tiny movement of the steering wheel. Around town and when parking, we demand the opposite – quick changes of direction from small steering inputs.
VGRS ensures that the faster you travel, the more assured and relaxing the steering becomes. Then, as speeds fall, the steering becomes progressively more responsive.
The system works by adjusting to the optimum steering gearing for car's speed. For example, at very low speed, the gear ratio will be at its lowest, keeping the steering immediately responsive and easily controlled during parking, tight cornering and U-turns.
VGRS has another key benefit. By stepping in with only minimal assistance it can effectively remove the impulse to overcompensate when steering through a corner that happens from time to time. In addition, VGRS works with the car's VDIM system to enhance safety by making small adjustments to the angle of the front wheel for enhanced stability under difficult road conditions.
