Default questions (ventilated seats, sun shade)

Hi guys just a quick question. I wana get a lexus ISF but i was looking through the packages and i dont see the option for heated and ventilated seats or the the sun shades in the back, memory seat options. Does the ISF already come with these options or it just doesnt not have it at all?

Cooled seats not an option, only heated. Only other option i know of is the Mark Levinson audio upgrade, think it's a $4k option and i think that includes the nav in that price but i could be wrong

My 2008 has heated front seats with memory, but no ventilated seats or sun shades.

I was a bit disappointed that the F doesn't have those options, when my Avalon does. That being said, I tinted my rear windshield so dark that there is no real use for a rear power sunshade. As for the cooled seats, I honestly don't feel it on my legs and thighs to be that important to be included.

the ventilated seats on my 07 is250 were horrible...it just a fan. At first I thought "cool this will make the seats cold when I get into the car in the summer" no thats not how it works it dosent suck up AC into the seats. However there was some ghetto rig mod to do it by reventing the rear seat vent up into where the fan pick up is with cardboard....im not missing that option at all.

I always liked the cooled seats in my IS350. I used to call it the taint tickler. Haha

Yeah, I was a little disappointed that the IS-F didn't come with cooled seats like my wife's '07 IS250 had. While it wasn't ice-cold air, it was still nice in the summertime.
