I had considered the Silver Opal color since I liked it in the showroom, but they had one at the dealer (wasn't a Premium, so I didn't consider it), and the color did not look good outside, so I'm glad I didn't go that route.

The ride is comfortable, although the drive itself is a little on the boring side. This is my 100 mile a day commuter car, so that's fine. I guess I'm unfairly comparing the ride since my wife just bought an Audi TTS, so if I'm looking for fun, I'll steal her car for the day. The electric motor does have a "whine" to it that was louder than I hoped it would be, but it can be easily ignored with the help of the stereo. The ventilated seats are nice and powerful, although I wish this had come out earlier to help with the summer heat here in Louisiana.

I wasn't able to get them to come off of MSRP at all, I guess that's the penalty for being first in line.

A big congratulations on purchasing the HS 250h. When you get a chance please post pictures. Also be sure to post in the HS 250h roll call thread. I believe you are one of the first Club Lexus members to purchase the HS. Happy driving and keep us updated...
