Forgive me if this is a repost. The IS section is one of the most active in this forum so the posts just get knocked off the page so quickly!

most notable changes include the trim on the glove box, LED daytime running lights, cleared rear turn signals, changes to the fog light/lower dam, and new rims, which might be a regional thing

That front bumper is awful, it looks like a smiley face from that angle
I doubt there would be a 2011 IS facelift when they just did it for the 09 ....I would think the next Generation IS would be due out as a 2012 model year...so I can't see them making a facelift for the 2011 model year...

The new headlight assemblies also have a darker redesigned internal housing with new signals (looks like just one now instead of the current two) and a chrome shroud around the projector. So unless it's a new whole aftermarket headlight assembly yet to be released, it's more likely a new factory design.
