Wow that IS is stunning! I think I'm going to order the same colour for my IS 350. How have you found keeping it clean? Do you find it gets dirty looking as quickly as a black car?

Much easier to keep looking clean than a blue or black car.

Swap was easy. The display doens't display all the text, but other than that it's great. I don't typically leave it on the audio screen anyway, so I don't notice.

The one issue I am having is the antenna. Still need to get that worked out.

I'm still working on getting the shark fin to work for sirius. I'm currently using the dot on the package tray under the back glass. It worked fairly well until the window tint. After the tint, it's painful, I need to get it hooked up to the shark.

So far it's been MUCH easier than black. As far as darker colors go, IMO, this is one of the better shades for hiding dirt.
