Personally, I don't dislike GW but I tend to prefer light colors, not sure why but bolder/darker colors tend to wear me out faster. I am not sure what my obsession is with white cars but on the IS (especially), the contrast between the black trims and white paint just pop!! I think if I bought a blue car, the planets would start spinning out of their orbits so we don't want that (lol)

I do know showroom and bright sunlight does not do GW any favors, but living in the PNW, that is not a concern as neither will happen on a regular basis haha. And like you said, unless they are paying for the car... what's it to them!

^^ I have not to be honest - Have the link? I tend to keep my vehicle somewhat stock but some mods are nice - When I used to get Acura products, I would often go for their aerokits

The black front accents on the white look stellar
I also did OEM accents on my Acura- Modulo bumpers/side skirts.

^^ Interesting - I suspect that these won't be available here or extremely costly to ship! It would be almost not affordable for those paying a 100k for the LE, there won't be any money left! (lol)

^^ LOL - I feel sooooooo bad for you guys! TBH, not sure why there is such dislike for this color - I thought the press car in GW looked fantastic!

I agree that the black sides are a bit too much (for my taste) - The front lips are more subtle. Not sure how I feel about those 20" wheels - They tend to be a bit too busy for me. If I don't like the Enkei wheels in person, I will install the stock OEM wheels from my 2021 IS 350 - In Canada, we don't have the polished finish, it is a painted gun metal finish and looks INCREDIBLE on the IS
