I dotn think ANY car on the road is that color. Its not a yellow or a gold.
Yeah, it's too...beige. They should offer a darker gold for the GS, like the Burnished Gold Metallic I had on my RX300.

[QUOTE=BlkBuzzard;1293974]These questions are mainly targeted at Glacier Frost owners. Those who have seen Glacier Frost in person can add their 2 cents as well though.

I have only seen the glacier frost on 2 different showroom floors (indoors) and both under different lighting and they looked entirely different both times. Therefore, I am having second thoughts about taking delivery on a glacier frost. Maybe you can help me.

Be HONEST now.

1. Describe the glacier frost on a bright sunny day? ona cloudy day? at night?

Ask 100 people the same question and you'll get 100 different answers

I've seen the color a few times throughout L.A. During the day, the color looks off-white and on occasion I see a greenish or blueish tint. Can't recall seeing the color at night. I think it's a love it or like it color (can't hate the color).

Whichever color you choose, choose the color that YOU want - forget about the opinions of others. They are not making the monthly payments.

I almost bought a GSF and went back and forth over and over like you are doing...

It was a smoking deal on the car which made me consider the color but for some reason I backed out.

What bothered me I think, was the fact that it did change so much. Basically I guess I wanted a car that I would know the color of when I walked outside to get in it.

Still love the color, but not for me...

Thumbs up Loving It Everyday!!!

I LOVE my GS350 with GFM, specially in Texas it is sunny all the time!!! Except the fxxking heat of course.

1.
a) On the sunny day, normally it looks pearl white. At the different angles, it changes from PEARL WHITE --> SILVER --> CLOUD OF BLUE TINT.
b) On the cloudy day, it looks light grey which might bring your mood down a little.
c) At night, it looks pearl white

2. So far the comments I got with my GFM is either
- it is a cool color!!!
- it is an amazing color!!!
- it is an awesome and unique color!!!
- it is a magic, it changes from one color to anothers!!!

3. The main reason I decided on the GS350 was when my wife and I were doing some shopping at Costco, I saw the color and decided right away that GS350 with GFM will be my second car!!! So I guessed that was the only color of the choice for getting the GS350.

All I am try the let you know is that GFM is a (HOT) color hard to get, especially Lexus only make less than 5% of GS350/GS430 in their entire production.

Awesome. I really do love this color on both the GS and IS. One of the best colors Lexus offers IMO.

Have any full pics of your car? Like those wheels.
