Agreed. The GS is stunning in black, but the paint is soft and scratches when you just look at it. Lots of maintenance. I would go Deep Sea Mica/Flaxen. That is a beautiful color and is metallic so it wouldn't be quite so high maintenance as Obsidian.

When I went for a test drive in a Liquid Platinum GS, I was fortunate a customer had a Starfire Pearl GS in the parking lot, so I could compare them directly in the same light. Both are good and show the lines well, but Starfire Pearl was the more appealing colour to me. However I have been driving a silver car for 10+ years and wanted a change, so that was also a factor in deciding to go with SFP. I feel like if I was not bored with silver, either would have been a great choice.
...with cabernet.
it would've been a toss up between starfire and nebula had the latter been on the lot.

I have SFP with FLAXEN. I've originally wanted Black / Flaxen but they told me I have to wait 6 months. I've already waited 3 months I am not waiting another 6 months so I went with the Flaxen.
Pros and Cons.
Flaxen = BEAUTIFUL COLOR (my favorite in lexus trims)
Makes the car look CLASSIER than it already is.
I have 2k miles in my baby and my interior is catching dirt and it is visible.
As opposed to BLACK interior would catch less dirt like the Flaxen.
If i had the chance to go back and had a choice of Flaxen vs Black, I will go Flaxen again. This color is a panty dropper.

but anyways i also went with SFP and flaxen, originally i wanted the red/orange interior but had to wait couple months i didnt feel like it was worth the wait so we just opted for the SFP and flaxen.
IMO beautiful combo.
