TP looks the best to me, and MR second. Go figure, both totally different looks. Black looks good, but you could regret it after a few months. White too girly for me. My x-wife had a white Mustang 5.0 years back and got so many comments about it being such a great colour for a girl.

Hmm...weird the IS350 I bought a few weeks ago is GFM...maybe they just swiched the emblems out and hiked up the price oh yeah and made it feel a whole lot faster than a 250

Go for Starfire w/ Black interior!

Initially I special ordered a GFM, but after 3 months of wait, I got impatience and switched to Starfire Pearl. I am so glad I did because when I compare my car to other GFM (IS and GS) on the road, my Starfire is much brighter, shinier and stands out more!

It's hard to find a 07 GFM 350 with LT & Nav on the east coast. It was easier in 2006, but Lexus decided to not allocate any in 07. May be my special ordered GFM is still out there

I don't quite get why someone would ask what color they should get. It's your money and you're the one thats going to look and drive it everyday. Anyways black ftw.

Yeah seriously, you're going to have a fun time in the 350 no matter what color you get.
