2027 Lexus IS 350 Special Appearance Package: specs, features and availability
Lexus has unveiled the 2027 IS 350 F SPORT Special Appearance Package, limited to 350 units for North America, featuring a new Envious green exterior and standard Handling and Technology Packages.
Lexus has found another way to keep one of the oldest premium sedans on the market feeling fresh. For the 2027 model year, the company introduced the IS 350 F SPORT Special Appearance Package, with production limited to just 350 vehicles for North America.
The headline feature is a new green exterior color called Envious. It’s paired with 19-inch black forged BBS wheels, while the cabin gets black NuLuxe seats with Ultrasuede inserts and green stitching.
The package isn’t just about looks, though. The standard equipment includes the Handling Package with adaptive variable suspension (AVS) and expanded drive modes. Rear-wheel-drive cars also get a Torsen limited-slip differential. There’s also a Technology Package with Traffic Jam Assist, Lane Change Assist and Front Cross-Traffic Alert.
Under the hood, there are no surprises. The American IS 350 keeps its naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6 rated at 311 hp and 380 Nm. Rear-wheel-drive versions get an 8-speed automatic, while all-wheel-drive models use a 6-speed unit.
The special edition’s equipment list also includes triple-beam LED headlights, a moonroof, a surround-view camera system, a power rear sunshade, a Mark Levinson audio system and a Smart Access key card.
What’s most interesting here is the car’s age. The current third-generation Lexus IS debuted back in 2013 and has gone through several major updates since. For the 2026 model year alone, Lexus significantly reworked the front end, interior and electronics, while trimming the U.S. lineup down to just the IS 350.
It’s an unusual strategy: instead of rushing to replace the sedan, Lexus is keeping interest alive with small-batch special editions. A similar Special Appearance Package existed for the 2026 model as well—that time, the same 350-unit run got a matte white Hakugin finish and a black-and-white interior.
Lexus hasn’t published them yet. The August 29 press release states outright that MSRP and full specs will be announced at a later date, so any current figures on pricing should be treated as unofficial.
