sad... I was hyped up for the new headlights...
Dunno how it went from the nice ones below to a single one. Perhaps the US market got screwed again...

my dealer informed me there are NO TRIPLE BEAM LED's available at all in the U.S. Overall, I'm disappointed that there is still no memory seats on the F-Sport, I cannot get real leather on the F-Sport (preferred for cleaning purposes), and the lights really disappointed me. I might move to the luxury model just for memory seats.

Lexus went to all this trouble making the front end look even more aggressive but then they put in single projector headlamp, this makes no sense. The single headlamp makes the car look weak, I just don't like how it looks now.

Lexus has posted official videos of the 2017 IS 200t and F-Sport, there are 400 MB ones so those are the best quality, really gives you a good idea how it looks inside and out. These are factory Lexus video so no music overlay. I still think the single headlights make the car look weak, why did they do that? The new navi looks awesome.

@goldengame,
It is a bad decision because the dealerships here back in Richmond/Vancouver where I go to visit were surprised when that actually happened. Driving around, I have seen RWD of IS's in the area driving mixed in with the AWD.
In a way it would hurt the sale because a customer may end up buying a different brand car of similar class which does have RWD.
Probably one final resort would be importing a US car however Canada customs changed the policy which will cost more which makes it difficult to justify doing so.
