US configurator is showing the 2010 IS250 Premium Package at only $240! What the! Wasn't it at least a grand+ for '09? Is this a typo? Bargain of the century!
Also, looks like they may have darkened the wood for '10 with the beige interior option. '09's got a golden shade of brown whereas it's now labeled medium brown (?).

Acura has always been #1 in the tech. And Lexus.... Well not so much...
HIDS for the most part were standard in 08, but in 09 they had to cut the msrp price which they did with the premium package. They took the HID option out of the premium package(which is like the standard package).

The premium package has never included HIDs either- they're a standalone option in general, and the only packages that include it are Luxury and Sport.
(again, in the US- Canada has some odd optioning in comparison)
For 06-09 the premium package was woodgrain and heated/vented seats...and that's it.
For '10 the heated seats are apparently standard, and the (now cheaper) premium package just adds the venting part and the woodgrain.
That, and discontinuation of the X package, and the updated Nav/audio/BT stuff appear to be the primary changes for '10.

And for all the modders, after you replace the wheels, suspension, etc...you're looking at $60k+ easy!!! With that price, you might as well consider getting a new IS-F, M3 or C63 and call it a day!

^That's right, I almost forgot.
I was hoping to see more options for 2010 IS in the USA. The F-Sport trim would've been nice but I guess you can get a lot more other things with $6100.00 CAN. Another thing, I really liked the X-Package wheels and based on Lexus.com it looks like they got rid of X-Package.

And it looks like now the only way to get factory 18" wheels on a 250 is to get an automatic with the F Sport Package (in Canada anyways).

HIDs have never been standard on the 2IS in the US for any year.
