Cannot believe I am saying that I am not digging the all black mirror at all. I love everything about the IS500. Never have had a negative thing to say till now except this. At least it is a very minor thing.

Im with you. Im not a fan of this color at all. With that being said, I'm not a fan of any bright/loud colored vehicles. Hence my plain ol white IS.

I feel bad for that engine. Turned it on and 0.5 seconds later turned it off. RIP

Really interesting to me how polarizing Grecian Water and now Blue Flame are.

Blue Flame looks WAY lighter than GW. Reminds me of Porsche Mexico Blue.

I like it. I’m a “blue guy” though. If there’s one available nearby come spring, I’ll be tempted to trade my LE for it.
