Florida LS600hL in Black Opal spotted - Mystery Solved
So, go figure. Not far from my house, I saw the mystery LS600hL in Black Opal. The mystery is apparently solved. It is, indeed, the same car from California.
Took a few quick pictures before anyone noticed. It definitely is the Black Opal. Stunning in person:

Nice...
Are you sure you don't know the owner...the window sticker makes it seem familiar...
Bit of a coincidence it ended up so close to you. Unless your neighbors have similar tastes?

Sorry to have been so cagy about it. There were issues. They'll either get resolved, or I'll get real public. For now, I'm playing things close to the vest.
The color is quite beautiful. But really needs sunlight to show it off. At night, indeed it looks black. And it looks bluish-black in overcast. But when point sources of light hit it, all those amazing colors come through.
Wouldn't fit next to the Lambo. Both are way too wide. Actually, for some reason I thought the LS600hL would be the same length as the LS430. Nope, not even close. Barely fits in my garage. Good thing it has the ultrasonic distance sensors. Whew!!!!
Oh, and BTW, that trunk is TINY!!!!!!!! I guess I'll be playing golf in twosomes from now on.

Car really does shine during the day. What I need is wider garages. No clue how I'll be able to do that, but I really need to.
I must have looked at the specs for the SWB LS600. I remember the sizes being only a fraction of an inch different. Boy, got that one wrong.

I'll work on it. I need a better backdrop to take the pictures.

So far I've seen in person more Obsidian 600hL's than any other color ...

Congrats again! Hope you get the ordering etc. details finalized ok. Yes this is quite a unique color, very desirable and I think they used that for the LS 600h L official launch ceremonies in several countries.
You were quite coy with the order! I admire the subtlety, smooth operator. When you said you "could not confirm or deny" it sounded to me like perhaps you have put out some feelers on the vehicle but someone else had picked it up.
Also the list of cars you have is quite nice but my eyes glazed over once I saw the Lambo...dreaming.
It's a good thing at least the car does fit in your garage, and yes golf is best in twosomes now because the trunk is designed around a Japanese exec's golfing habits.
