Looking at pictures of vehicles for sale, I'm seeing the button on all 2018 and higher, and a blank place for a button on all 2017 and earlier. Does that sound right? Does anyone know if this was an option on either range, or not available on earlier models, standard on 2018+?

No, that's not what they're talking about. All models have lane departure warning and precollision braking. This is a button you press to hold yourself on an incline without having to hold the brake pedal down. It came on the 2018 models, but not prior to that.

Could this get stickied? As more and more GSF enter the used market, we have users who want to know what the differences are between the 16-19 model years.
So, I took it upon myself to look at all the technical specifications and highlight the changes that were noted by Lexus themselves. In other words, I read and got the information directly from Lexus's brochure and product information for each model year.
NOTE: This only includes US models and if I missed something feel free to correct me. If anyone can get me the tech specs sheets from each country I would gladly edit the post to include those.

This being first year, there are no changes but the options for all MY are:

<<2018
- Lane Depart Alert (LDA) with lane keep assist with the new addition of Steering Assist (Interesting thing to note, Lexus lists the steering assist feature as included with the 2016 GSF in their brochure but that is incorrect..)>>
FWIW, I believe the '16s do have Steering Assist; at least mine will correct steering when the LDA is switched ON.

I do not have the part number, however, you will find it a lot harder finding the non-polished rims being they were the stock rim color from 2017-2019 with the polished ones being optional except in 2016 where they were standard. Would recommend just grabbing a set of polished rims and getting them refinished. Check out @designo 's powder-coated GSF rims... I am tempted constantly to copy him.

The part number for the 2019 fronts is 4261A-30220. Rears 4261A-30470. They do not appear to be polished, only painted.
