Default Hawaii ISx50 OFFICIAL Sales by Color

I asked my wifey to get me some #'s



This is very different than the national numbers I've read regarding color percentages and is250 to is350 sales. This has confirmed my worst nightmare, GFM is not very rare at all (in Hawaii).

Wow...hard to believe there aren't that many Matador Reds out there since it was one of the first I saw at the dealership.

Can your wifey break it down by island?

Very interesting statistic. That means the 250 vs 350 ratio is 3:1.

im not suprised that black onyx doesnt seem to be too popular here. too much dust and rain! I was thinking of getting the Glacier frost Mica but when i ordered mine i didnt see any vehicles in that color. Nice color but im glad i didnt get it now

uh oh, i got GFM. I didn't know it was the second most popular color here. at least i didn't get tungsten pearl. i still don't regret it though, GFM is hot.

i hope most of these GFM buyers are girls though because that color is pretty girly.

Actually, Lexus USA's distribution is all of contiguous 48 states. Hawaii is serviced by Servco who is the sole distributor for Toyota & Lexus in Hawaii. Their distribution is not under control of Toyota Motor Sales USA or Lexus USA, so their allocation is shipped directly from Japan and has no bearing on US Mainland distribution.

I'm also one of the GFMs and happy to be so. I get a lot of compliments on the color alone, not to mention the vehicle styling.
