U know what - u r right lexusls430....for some reason they looked a lot different than the ones we have seen from the autoshow. I think a lot has to do with the lighting. The one iv seen at the houston auto show looked SUPER HOTT!!!!!!!!! in mercury metallic....

Im not a fan of matador red but it looked pretty good at the dealership when i took the picture. In fact both the cars looked very good at the dealership and a lot different than the autoshow...i can agree with that - its weird - yet true... like i said..i feel the lighting has a LOT to do with that.

Flip...the cars we have been seeing at the autoshows....i know those r all hand built prototypes...but are all the autoshow ones all exactly 100% production? Im asking this because the cars at my dealership are all PRODUCTION. Maybe this has sumthign to do with why the cars at the autoshows look different than the ones i took pics of at the dealership? They had the VIN numbers on them but i was not allowed to take a picture of that.

I didnt get into details with my rep...all he told me was that they r both AWD cars as u all can see and he said both of them are FULLY EQUIPPED ....meaning EVERY SINGLE possible option that is offered, is in the cars.

There's really nothing different. Maybe very subtle last minute touches for the production cars i.e. molded plastic pieces and the texture and odds and ends that the average person wouldn't notice. Specifically the taillights and headlights, the preproduction models had the tails and fogs with no Toyota print w/a part number or SAE/DOT markings on them. They should now.

No it's all in your head. You're seeing the car under artificial high powered tungsten and flourescent lighting.
