The Indigo crushes everything else in my opinion . I hate the interior color choices it comes with. They should offer it in black or a gray.

Indigo does come with black, although in very small quantities, since indigo isn't produced as much as other colors in the first place.

Magusfuria, you're wrong it DOES NOT come in Indigo with Black. I have the 2004 brochure in front of me and I tried to build it on the Lexus website.

Well at least for 2002 models it does, because I almost bought one, then decided to get indigo/ecru. Maybe not for 2004, but they do exist...

I happened to see an Indigo/Black this afternoon on eBay. I also saw one in for service at the dealership, and was amazed. Indigo/Black with black pearl badging would look tremendous; I'd also go for Indigo/Saddle.

Come to think of it, didn't the Neiman Marcus edition SC430 have a special color called "thunder cloud metallic?" Or was it just millenium silver metallic.

1ton , was that for 2002 or 2003 ? I'm researching the time that color combo was available.

It sure did. Thundercloud Metallic was a dark silver/pewter color, and the NM edition had that with Candy Red interior. TCM is also available on the 03-04 IS 300 SportDesign, and the forthcoming ES 330 SportDesign (you can check out the color on the Lexus website under the ES).

The Neiman Marcus was sold only as a 2002 model.

IMHO, Twilight Amethyst Pearl is still the most gorgeous paint color I' ve seen on any car.
No picture I' ve seen will do any justice. Watching it glow under the sun & change color as you move to different angles is amazing.
