In my mind you have Starfire Pearl on one side, and Tungsten Pearl on the other in this part of spectrum. Glacier Frost is somewhere in the middle. Personally, I'd prefer either SP or TP before GF. Neutral colors like white and silver are more classic on luxury cars. Blue, not so much. Nothing wrong with it, but it would not be my choice if I was looking for a lighter colored car.

I've heard rumors that glacier frost mica is being discontinued for the 2008 model year? Anyone else heard the same???

I love my GFM, every one that saw my car gave me compliments on the color, cause it's not the everyday white color you see on the street. I think is a great color, that might be discontinued for the 08 models. Here's are some pictures:

I wasnt even going to get the GF....I was set on ordering a Smoky Granite...and then i saw this blueish-white IS on the freeway so I had to find out what color it was. The colors on the Lexus website didn't help at all so I went to a few local dealers and finally found one that had a GS430 in GF. I was set to get GF after that. I am so glad I did its not nearly as common as Tungsten, black, or Smoky Granite.

GFM is the fastest color :]

But seriously, GFM is a color you need to see in person. Some people love it, some people hate it. I think it is fantastic, and unlike any other color on the road right now, which is why it is so hard to explain. It's like.. a grayish bluish goldish pinkish pearl. It's hard to give it one clear name; I wouldn't even call it white, because it has a LOT of silvery hues in it.
