Luxury package!
Its been 3 days since my new car. When I was at the dealer picking up my car, the salesman and I went over to my 2009 is350 and went over thing such as navigation, how the car works, etc. I realized that my steering wheel was not power steering wheel. I had a latch underneath the steering wheel where I had to adjust the wheel to my comfort mechanically. Does the luxury package come with power steering wheel? If so should I contact my salesman right away and complain?!

Without power steering a vehicle the weight of an IS350 would be pert near un-drivable at parking lot speeds. The ~2100 .lb circa '86 Honda Civic wagon my family used to have was even a real bear w/o power steering.

No it didn't. Lux Pkg is totally unrelated to nav. Lux Pkg has always included power tilt/telescope. Power tilt telescope means you have either Lux or Sport Pkg, and if you don't have power tilt, you don't have either of those pkgs.

I'm not sure if its because of the way the IS 350s are built. I'm looking at an "new vehicle inquiry sheet." It shows the VIN as well as the packages that are equipped on the car.
For this particular one I see---
FL: 18" 5 spoke wheel.
HW: Headlamp washer.
PA Intuitive Park Assist
Z1 Prefer Accessory Package
HL: HID HdLamp
NV: Nav System
PT Premium Package.
So there is NO Luxury package. My salesman said, very confidently, that my car would come with memory seat, power tilt steering wheel. When I asked if I would be getting the rear power sunshade, he said he was unsure.
When he said that, I had to think a little. I recall people saying that if you see memory seats, thats the first telltale sign that you have the luxury package...
When I call the guy again tomorrow, I'm going to have him double check what the car has.
