Nope, I don't think so. Before I picked up my 08 450h, I told my salesman that I wanted the 09 because it has a bigger trunk. He goes into his Lexus software and drills down on the specs for both the 08 and 09 GS 450h. Clear as night and day, both 08 & 09 had the same cargo capacity (forget the actual amount).
I wouldn't be surprised if the software your salesman used was wrong. The list of inconsistencies across Lexus databases, press releases, websites, etc. is long. Case in point, model years get updated on the website, but it takes a while for the "build model X" feature to be updated accordingly. Pics with basic mistakes (like the backwards wheel shown here), etc. Another example, my name showing up in 3 different ways across Lexus systems, and I could go on... On anything related to info. systems, Lexus seems to be way behind, unfortunately.

FWIW, both lexus.com and Edmunds are showing a larger number for cargo capacity for the 2009 model. Edmunds has 8 cu ft and 11 cu ft for 2008 and 2009, respectively.

Of course, at the rate those sell, it will impact approximately 12 people for the 2009 MY.

Rear fog lights are usually aux. red lens lamps that emit light as bright as you are depressing your brake pedal. The taillamps on the 3GS are LED, but run on 2 different intensities instead of the conventional double filament bulb (regular on and full bright from brakes). Rear fog lamps usually means one or two of the rear taillamp lenses (either right or left side and body and or decklid mounted). Rear fogs on most new cars today are just relays to allow one of the taillights to run at full intensity at all times rather than half intensity when your lights are on.
