Default 2020 IS300 AWD FSport

I have a 2017 IS300 and I’m at the dealer for service.

The 2020 seems less expensive. Price decrease?
But we know it has more features......

I was surprised to see that the mouse has disappeared!

Overall, seemingly much improved and less expensive.

What did it have in place of the mouse? Are you sure it wasn't a non-nav model that just had display audio?

The 2020 brochure states that it still has the mouse.

Yeh, no NAV. Sorry for the confusion.
I thought the NAV was part of the FSport
package. That would explain why the sticker is a bit
lower. I am not used to getting up at 6am :-).
8 am appt for tires.

That explains it.

I do find that Lexus does often lower prices as the cars age, or at least adds content without significant price increases.

For example, my 2019 GS was only something like $500 more than my 2015 was, yet has many, many more features (triple LED headlights, power trunk, HUD, Safety Suite, etc.).

You need FSport2 to get the Nav, FSport1 just gives you the options from the Premium package (at least in Canada).

In the US, we don't have an "F Sport 2", but we do have the Premium Package and the Navigation/Mark Levinson Premium Audio Package.

Odd how the packages are different to that degree, and no ML for Canada unless you get the 350.

Back in 2010 going from RWD to AWD was $4k (at least in Canada), now its only a $2k diff and you get a better engine with more HP.
