Differences Between Is250C 2009 To 2013

[Marjo]

Hi everyone,

I am wanting to buy a Lexus is250c sports luxury.

What are the differences between year models if any?

I prefer the look of the 2013 because of the wheels but cannot work out if that is all they changed or not.

Really appreciate any feedback and advice in regards to the model and what to look for in a second hand unit.

Regards,

Marjo.

theres actually little differences

my best pick would be a 2013 as it has bluetooth audio

but from 2011 is250c has led headlights

2009 and 2011 is pretty much the same except led headlights

subtle differences like different colour woodgrain trims

2009 has brown woodgrain trim and 2011 onwards has green coloured wood grain trim

i personally have a 2011 sports luxury

Thanks for your reply.

Is there any difference in body shape??

The 2013 looks to me if it has wider front and rear mug guards.

no there is no different body shapes unless you get a F sport which has the sedan F sport front bumper bar
