What exactly are the differences between the Luxury and Sport packages?

DrShoe

Sport has these but not Lux:
Aluminum Pedals
Non-illuminated Lexus door sills scuff plates
Sport suspension
Metal trim instead of wood


Lux has these but not Sport:
Wood trim
Sunshade
Illuminated door sills scuff plates


That's really it as both have memory seats and bi-xenon lights.

in my region, the sport package is around $500 less than the luxury package.

Are you sure it's metal trim? I have a Lux and my friend has a Sport and while it's been a while since I've been inside his, I could have sworn it was plastic painted silver to try and resemble aluminum.

DrShoe

It is probably painted plastic, I am not entirely sure since I have never been in a Sport before. I have seen pics and they looked like the standard trim that comes with the IS if you dont get any packages at all.

What he said, except that the Sport comes with 18" rims/summer tires and a Luxury can be had with the stock 17" rims/All season tires.

Also would add that if you have a Sport, you can add the illuminated door sills (like I did),
and if you have the Luxury, you can add the alloy pedals . . .

sport also has the upgraded and larger brakes.

no the IS350s have larger brakes over the IS250, packages dont change the brakes

al503

Ah. I stand corrected.

On the Canadian Lexus site, there is also a bullet indicating that the sport package includes a limited slip differential. The US site has no such bullet. I'm not sure how to interpret...

So they both have the ventilated and heated seats, and all of the other little convenient features?

Check out the IS section of the Lexus website (www.lexus.com).
Go to the Prices/Options section - it'll give you a detail listing of what is included for each package - it'll give you an idea of what equipment is available w/packages.

anyone have pictures of the interior of a IS350 w/ sport package? Ive heard conflicting stories on the quality of the "metal" silver trim. before I order I would like to see what it looks like

thanks
