What colors do people own in the GS 450h? Sounds like black and silver are still the main/only ones to be coming. I have a black w/ cashmere and love love love it.

Flint Mica's been around for a while if you don't want the stabalizer bar. Check Auto Trader to find several of them.

Icicle Blue isn't available in the US, but judging from the Lexus Canada website it's the same as- or very close to- the NM special edition color.

In colorado I know for a fact I am the only 450h in the silver/black combo. (as of 3 weeks ago).
I know of one other Black/black that has been sold.
I think only 2 so far sold in CO.
There might be more if they were bought elsewhere and brought in. I'll check on it.

I have the Black in and out and fully loaded. I haven't seen another 450h here in the Bay Area. I only see the 350s, 430s and older models. Had mine for 4 weeks now. The dealership only had a white and mine (the black), which I traded in my Black '07 GS350. No comparison!

how'd you make out on the 07 swap financially?
Was it worth it $$$, or just car wise?

I just put a deposit down on one that's Starlight Pearl. That color isn't on your list. I fell in love with the color as it was on a 430 coupe (Pebble Beach edition) sitting on the showroom floor. I also love the Spyder wheels on the coupe, so I'm having the same ones put on my 450h. With tinted windows, the car looks sweet!

I considered getting Matador Red (like hubby's IS350), but I wasn't up for a 3-4 month wait...

My salesman told us that the 450h's are built only in silver, black or white due to the limited production, unless they are specially ordered. Then you have to wait. They had a flint mica on the lot, but they had special ordered it. It was nice, but I like the cashmere interior better than the grey, so I opted for the Starlight Pearl one that they also had available...

Lexus only makes the Glacier Frost Mica GS - 450h or otherwise - with a black or silver interior, and for the life of me I can't figure out why not with a cashmere interior.

Is anyone aware of anyone successfully ordering a Glacier Frost Mica with a cashmere interior - not just a 450h, but any GS?
