First 2023 I have seen in Caviar, looks damn good with the black enkei rims. On the waitlist for a Caviar on black one, specially requested the standard enkei rims as i like them more than the BBS. One of the few times i like the standard option over the upgraded option (BBS rims). Seeing a lot of them coming over optioned with the BBS. Lets see some more photos without the rain!

The caviar is a great color, probably the choice I'd go with after infrared. The darker enkeis look good too. I wonder sometimes if I should just powder coat mine. I remember someone with an USB posted a pic somewhere in this thread with blacked out wheels and it looked really good.

Any closer pic of the Enkei wheels on the caviar 2023?
I thought that for 2023 they were supposed to be gloss black, but those look like a hyper silver or black finish like from the USDM 2021+ F sport wheel. There is a lot of metallic flake in them if I am seeing it right.
I saw pics of the gunmetal finished ones offered in the Japanese Market but they don't quite look the same.

The black slims down the spokes compared to silver, just like clothes do.

Difference is where we’re at now has made an industry out of monthly membership-based car washes, and they’re everywhere, so it’s really easy to just go through one while running other errands. Texas has car washes of course but don’t remember seeing many membership-based ones.

Texas isn’t too bad for keeping cars clean, at least Austin and Dallas aren’t. When it rains, it rains hard enough to almost be a car wash in and of itself. And don’t really get a ton of dust or waves of pollen.

The car looks incredible in black! I think you have my 2nd favorite color combo! I would really like to see the white or red with those black wheels as well, I bet it's an excellent combo!
