Can someone please tell me if this is Blue Onyx Pearl in the picture? Brochure's color sample looks totally different, and the computer generated color on Lexus's web site looks fake. Thanks.

nope... Blue Onyx Pearl is much much darker and closer to black than that blue color...

That blue is not available for order from the factory...

It's NOT available for order from the factory? That sucks.

This thread has quite a few pics of the Blue Onyx.

So is that a special version they prepared for the show or something?

Yes, it's from the New York Auto Show or something. I think this pic has been posted b4.

The color looks like the bright blue of an Audi S4.

Wow I like it! Thats a very nice color.

Yes, this has been posted several months ago. You will also notice BBS wheels and I think someone who went to the show said this is a Borla exhaust made just for this show model, as they don't have one available for the 2IS yet.

called Royal Sapphire. Sort of bright blue and purple mixed. It didn't sell well however. We've had Intensa Blue and other bright blue hues. There is a new blue called Aquamarine that is bright enough to be eliminated from the ES350's production order for the Eastern region. The Blue Onyx is found in the ES, GS, IS and LS models and mimics black at night. The blue comes on in the bright sunlight. It is metallic and has a clear coat which black does not. It does not have quite the drama of black onyx but is easier to keep up.
