Yup which is why there is a base model with base headlights.

or Bi Leds are a cheaper alternative for a highly specd car lol. Alot of F sports seem to be coming without T beams even though their sticker is at the high end of the pricing spectrum

People are willing to pay a premium for F-Sports so Lexus takes advantage of it. Most of the F-Sport RX units I have seen lack a lot of the premium features.

I ordered the luxury package, but the triple lights were an additional $1000 option. I was offered a vehicle in the color I wanted with the triple lights but no luxury package, so I assume that's available. I LOVE my triple lights - they are very bright and look awesome.

Triple LED lights are option for all RX. I ordered my RX 350 F-sport with all available option and I love everything on my car and including triple LED.

The triple LEDs are well worth the money. Not only do they look good but the high beams are outstanding!

Can you actually see the triple beams move side to side at startup? Lexus dues not list that as available on any of the Canadian models....... I wonder if it is only in US.

No they don't move like the ones on my 2012 did. They are stationary (but wide angle and very bright)

Has anyone put a Bi LED next to a Triple LED and compare the light output of both systems? As far as looks are concern, The Trips takes the cake but other than that. Are there other improvements one over the other assuming both have AFS?

Yes, because of that I doubt we have Adaptive Front Lighting. We have Auto leveling and turning lights here.

Default Cool to have the washers but not necessary here in CA

I had them on my 2014 GX460 prior to getting my 2016 RX350. I never had the need for them here in California. I did use them maybe twice for the 2 years I had the vehicle but not because I needed to, but because I wanted to see if and how they worked. Cool to have but not necessary for me in California.
