No these are not made in Canada. The biggest thing I notice are the projector lights. Maybe they have HIDS. Not too sure, but it does look nice

Camry parking only is photoshopped in. If you look at his other photos, you will see that for every one in that garage

Guys, don't forget, they JUST started introducing Lexus to the Japan market in 2006.
Lexus was originally intended to compete in N/A and a very small market in Europe.
What you are looking at there is a Lexus ES350, with Toyota Camry badges..
It was the same YEARS ago when they had the 1995ish style Lexus LS400.. it was a Lexus here, but a Toyota Celsior in Japan..
You will still pay the premium for THAT Camry over there, just as you would for an ES350 here..
Obviously there are subtle differences on the interior etc., but its Japan.. people over there and in Europe want the latest and the best.
People here in N/A want disposable.. Let it last 3-5 years and toss it.. hence why we don't get all the neat stuff like they do.. and besides, not enough people will care to pay the premium to have the toys they do in the Euro cars.. let alone time to use them..
People too busy reading the paper, coffee, food etc. in their cars around here.. they would never get around to using anything..

For sure the pictures look amazing.. so does what he has done to that car, which is upgraded wheels, very nice touch, and it looks like it has suspension work..
and for those wanting more information, I went through it myself so we can all see for ourselves..

If they had this here, I'd hit it for sure.. (I know we do, but no way in hell I'll pay $50g's large right now for a car, when the very similar can be had, for Camry money)..
On a side note, when I visited Saudi Arabia back in 2001, this was a big problem to the people over there.. lots were buying the Toyota Land Cruiser, and re-badging them with Lexus emblems.. the people complained, Toyota listened (one of their biggest markets).. that's why now you see differences between the cars.. Obviously this resembles an ES350 more than the Avalon does, but it is after all the Japanese market, their home brand..
