Default Carizzmah Blue!

The "Carizzmah Blue" color from the 2006 IS at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show is absolutely amazing looking. I hope the color makes it to production and the 2007 GS.

My pal Scott saw this car/color online and e-mailed me the link.

He said "it looked like my kind of color." He is right.

The LS460 and a GS of some kind are in the background of this picture...

I may be the only one, but I don't think that the 2007 Lexus LS 460 is that nice looking. The interior is nice, but the exterior is boring and ugly IMHO. The current LS is nicer looking exterior wise. Also, why is Lexus putting those door mounted side-view mirrors on their cars? Thank god the new GS doesn't have them. Maybe it's just my age speaking. Just my two cents.

Yup, you are the only one. J/K

I definitely think the new effort is better than the current LS.

Back to the topic though, that color would not look good on a GS!

I agree! That color would look hideous on the GS. I don't even like it on the IS. That color should be banned from the spectrum of light. LOL Just kidding. Slick, are you one of those people that has troubles letting go of old designs? If so don't worry your brain will adjust.

Nope, I'm definately not one of those people. I think the new GS and IS are a lot better looking than the previous generations. I just find the new LS a little funny looking. Maybe it's one of those cars that you have to see in person to appreciate.
