Default Photos of RX 330 Bamboo Pearl?

Husband and I like the RX330. We have a deposit on a bamboo pearl....haven't seen the color in person yet. Other then the lexus website is there any other online photos of the bamboo pearl that I can take a look at? I browsed through the gallery but wasn't sure which ones are the pearl.
Thanks!

Our loaner RX is bamboo pearl. I can't say I really like it that much, but it is a unique color. In bright sunlight it looks kinda of light olive green. When there is less light it appears sort of gray. Other times it looks beige. I know it sounds confusing but maybe that's why the Lexus paint is considered a higher quality than other manufacturers? I would take a pic of it, but I don't know if it would accurately represent the color. Maybe they should have called it chameleon!

Cae: Make sure you see the color in person and especially in direct sunlight before commiting. When I first saw the color, the day was overcast and I thought it looked good; a little millennium silver w/ a little savannah. Couple days later, went back to the dealership and saw it in bright sunlight... The pearl is a very noticeable 2-tone that changes from different angles. Too "pearly" for me. Still waiting for the silver bullet to arrive...

We took a drive over to a dealership that had one that was getting ready to go. I tried to be open to the color but my husband and I decided I would be happier with a black. I'm now on a waitlist for a black one. We'll see how long it's going to take.
Thanks for your replies!
