I just got my is500 MY23 yesterday. Was debating about getting MY24 but after speaking to the reps and little inside peak at their system. Seems like so far what the dealership notes has for changes are as follows for the is500:
1. Powertilt steering wheel
2. Special appearance package
A rep told me that they might discontinue the V8 after this year and go to a turbocharged V6. But that’s just what he’s been hearing. That’s all I got so far

Awesome!!! Weren’t you the first guy to say the IS 500 was in the mold of the GS F? I remember a Lexus Enthusiast writing/saying something like that and I thought it was spot on. 💪🏽💙
The next best thing to more #BlueCrew members are more Atlanta Owners! 😜 I don’t want fleet level visibility, but I want to see more 500s out and about. 😉😎
…and I’d do it again. 😂😂

didn’t see anything about the rear shade but definitely a new colour, which is unknown at this time. But year power tilt and telescope for sure from their update from Lexus Canada

Dumb question, but is the lack of Power Tilt and Telescope a Canada thing? I have a 2023 in the states and I swear it has this but I have not adjusted it since I got it.

Yes, it's only available on the luxury & ultra luxury package but not on the 500 and no rear shades as well cuz we don't have a premium trim, our one trim 500 fits in between base and premium, we have ML system, big screen and triple beams but no power tilt & telescope and no rear shades. Canadian 22MY IS500 don't even come w/ sunroof, Canadian 23MY was the first year for 500 to have sunroof lol...

And the irony is there could very well be more Blue Vectors than all Grecian Water and USB combined.
