Think about it this way:

USE flags are to ebuilds as options are to automobiles.  Some
automobiles offer all-wheel drive as an option.   Some don't offer it as
an option all.  And for some (e.g. Subaru) the cars all have all-wheel
drive and it's not an option. Just the same as all-wheel drive (and
brake pads) are not an option on a WRX, arts is apparently not an option
on a noatun. 

The IS 250, BTW, offers AWD as an option.  Don't u wish you could

USE="awd" emerge =cars-lexus/is_250-2007
