You can get any of the 7 colors for the GS450h. But you have to order the car. You actually just got one of the dealer's cars that are coming in and as you found out, your region only brings in black and silver cars

A true order takes over 3 months - but allows you ultimate flexibility.

I tried to special order a different color, and unless a number of different dealers are misinformed, you can't even special order the other colors or option packages yet. All the current factory produuction is black, silver, gray, or white. Once dealers have some inventory available, Lexus should open up to special orders.

That's quite possible - of course a quick call to Lexus can always clear that up (might want to mention that the website shows 7 colors).

Back in 2002 when I wanted a blue GS430 I was told by several dealers that they were not making them. That was true - but only for my region and I would have had to special order it since they could not be diverted from other regions - but none of the dealers seemed to know about this........

Tomorrow someone from the dealership will be picking me up between 11:30am to 12pm.

How's your Hybrid SUV treating you? Your SUV is such a very quiet, smooth, and fine ride!!!

Take care buddy.
