You also don't own an IS500, so why do you care?

To those who like Blue Vector or USB but don't like Grecian Water, honestly curious why?

I like the medium blue of Grecian, honestly feel it's more unique than the very bright Blue Vector style blue which can be found on everything from RAV4s to Corvettes these days.

It's more of an ongoing joke than judgement. Plus Tipsy has been very active and informative since these came out, although he doesn't own one. He can comment just as you can without being owners

Never said he couldn't comment, I simply asked why he cares. Anywho...

I personally love all 3.

I think Grecian looks the best of the three, honestly I think it's the best of all the colors on the 500 (2023). The only reason I'm opting for VB over a '23 Grecian is the exclusiveness. Yes I know Grecian is extremely rare, BUT its available on every trim and I suspect the number of 300s sold this year as Grecian will skyrocket. plus I just like blue.

I know I'm not who you're targeting with this question, but I love Grecian

Honestly with all the smack I talk about regarding Grecian Water, this pic genuinely looks stunning. I like it much more than Blue Vector. I think what killed GW for me is that I’m sick and tired of seeing so many IS300s in that color all with Glazed Caramel interiors. I find that combo so ugly, especially on what is essentially a base model car.

It's all personal and subjective. In my subjective and personal opinion, Caviar is the worst color for the IS. I'd take any of the blues over it. Personal opinion of course.

I beg your pardon. 😂😂 Caviar looks amazing on both the IS and LC. It also hides dirt very well so it looks great while dirty as a black paint. Its more carbon not black.

Classy and high end look. But thats just my meaningless opinion

i like just about every color of the IS. They're truly original well thought out and have their color changing ways on may of them . The colors are geared to a mature client I believe

My buddy called my IS cute lmao

It was a joking jab at the dude that's talking smack about the blues. I like all the IS colors 😉
