BTW, those parking spaces were made for VW Bugs and Coopers. Thankfully he will be as concerned about his doors as you are about yours!

Agreed!
Ditto. My '07 LS was Smoky Granite and I got the same color on my '09 ON PURPOSE

I guess you or your car made a "big" impression on him. My roommate in college got the same car as me a few years back. It was quite annoying. So I feel what you're going through. Time to mod the LS to set it apart.

Not odd to buy the same car but quite odd to buy the same color and what makes it more odd is its a RARE vehicle. Its not like its an ES 350 that they sell tons of.

I can't wait to hear the reasoning!

I think it would make for an interesting conversation...'nice car...what inspired you to buy one...you may have noticed the car I drive...?'

I drove a LS460 for 16 months, and he drove a GS430; he also has a GX.

Encore, that's exactly how the conversation went when I asked him about his acquisition a few months back.
