^^^^That car has the new F-Sport package. It must come with the ISF style spoiler.

IS250 and IS220d will get revised engine specs in order to meat Euro5.

Diesel for the first time will get option of 150hp in some areas (177hp was the only option so far) and acceleration number will go down to 10.2 secs for 0-100km/h but consumption will be 5.1l per 100km (46mpg US). Now I am not sure if this 150hp unit is same 2.2 or Toyota's new 2.0 which also comes with 6 speed automatic in new Avensis.

2.5 V6 will get 208hp and lower consumption from 9,1l to 8,4l (28mpg US).

Lexus configurator is only half working. Showing the 2010 steering wheel with the 2011 interior and showing the 2010 body when previewing 2011 colors. Cerulean Blue is new. Ultrasonic Blue is there, but won't preview on my computer.

I'm not getting it in addition to my 2008 IS, rather, I'm trading in my 2008 for the 2011. ^_^

On a side note, apparently the US 2011 IS no longer has the “Lexus” badge on the trunk lid. You can see it in the pictures on the lexus.com website …strange.

Hmm, seems to be gone from the F to.

The '11 GS is also on the US site. Lexus is also missing from it's trunk. Maybe it's an across the line change?
