It should. Just going through Autotrader's Canada site shows those packages/trims are available there. Premium package will have woodgrain, luxury package will have woodgrain + memory seats and the rear shade. Sport package will have silver trim + memory seats. Here's Lexus Canadas spec sheet for an 08: http://media.lexus.ca/internal_redir...2008_specs.pdf

No Nav was an option, but all luxury's have memory seats on driver and passenger side and wood grain. Just look at the pics of the doors and note memory seats on both sides. F-Sports do not have memory seats btw.

Yes. All luxury packages have heated and ventilated seats for what the ventilation is which is horrible. The heat is pretty good though.

The also had on 2007+, a "Premium" package, which was the base package but added heated/vent seats and wood. Usually those models also were packaged with HID and NAV options.
No memory seats or rear shade.

Luxury Package also has side dimming mirrors like rearview.

May have been swapped from a previous owner. No package other than the Luxury package has ever came with the sun shade. I know the sun shade is DIY'able, but it's a bit pricey and a bit of work, much simpler to get rid of the woodgrain if they want the silver trim. Do you have the sport pedals (aluminum)?

This is true...on the 2009+ most 2IS had the grey marble trim (if that is what you meant by grey) and an easy swap with a non-base model with vented seats for the controls cutouts. If it's plain matte grey, someone would have swapped with a Sport model.

All the base model 2IS had the same matte grey but most are missing the heated/vented seat control cutouts, so hard to swap center shift console.

If anyone wants to know:
2013 350 F-Sport has black interior, aluminum pedals, Nav, backup camera (No lines), 14 speaker audio, One USB port plays MP3's, center section of seats are microfiber the rest leather'ish, center section of console is silver. Auto dimming RVM, sunroof. That's the basics inside.

No ML audio, memory or vented seats, sun shade.

One question, owner opted for scuff guard on rear bumper and it has the Lexus logo in it. The trunk lid does not have the Lexus logo on the left. Is that normal?
