WoW this is our First Great look at "Fire Agate Pearl" in person..!!

EDIT: it was not FAP...

"Starlight Black" (Europe name) is available on the 2011 Lexus RX, listed under "Stargazer Black" in the USA.
Same paint code (217)





Looks awesome on the GS350

I dont think that is fire agate pearl is it? It looks more like a metallic black than a metallic brown. I would guess its Stargazer Black from the RX line

You gotta have a sharp eye to spot this color indoors.....

Especially with all the Green & White over head spot lights....

I guess it's my own opinion for now.. Unless Lexus plans to add a "Pearl Black" to the GS color palette mix..

I couldn't find any other 2013 GS sample colors that was this dark with Pearl in it.

I guess according to those side mirror samples at the reveal that there isnt a metallic black...

but the shot of the rear of the GS looks like a gray/black

Yes, I noticed that too for the rear shots... Almost looked like "Smoky Granite Mica" to me...


The COLORED LIGHTING in there is just crazy...!!!!!!

it's a pearl though, so in different light it will reflect differently (read totally different color).

that is one AWESOME color!! re-thinking my ties to dark blue only....

As a fan of SGM I'm also very impressed by the FAP.

Damn I was wrong!!!!

Good thing you have the resources to confirm


Is this color going the be available in the USA ??

or

Only a Euro Spec option... ??


EDIT: "Starlight Black" (Europe name) is available on the 2011 Lexus RX, listed under "Stargazer Black" in the USA.
Same paint code (217)


I always wonder why they slightly change the names in different Markets...
&
Still wonder if USA is getting this paint code for the 2013 GS.

Also found this "Down Under"

Just Purchased ISF - Starlight Black in Australia

Okay, I keep seeing FAP and I'm like "wait so they are fapping to this color" so I read the last couple of pages a few times and figured it out.
