Im proper confused.

I thought the new IS's had electronic memory seats, but i visited my local car supermaket (motorpoint) who had a very very nice black is250, but with manual seat,

but then some are?

is is just the SE multimedia ones which have it?

continuously variable transmission. All it means is you get the best gas mileage vs performance possible. The gearbox doesn't have any gears!!!! A complex bit of tech, found in loads of cars now. it is VERY smooth because there are no gears to swap.
