I assume he meant Obsidian. In Canada the IS is offered in two blacks, Obsidian and Starlight, Obsidian is a pure black, no metallic flake while Starlight has metallic.

Starlight black is pretty nice

Obsidian is pretty common

I agree. It should be a legit paint job since 1) its the Lexus stealership you should expect the best quality work from them and 2) they already messed up with u more than enough they don't wanna mess up again. I love my Starfire Pearl. It took me 3 months to find it one with all the options I wanted. The only color I would have taken other than SFP would have been USB

You can do that but the features on board is by default on the US does not have as much as the Canadian car for about the same equivalent package, not to mention the different spec as I mentioned earlier.

Common whats the extra option ?.. Just few small things? It's not a big deal. We have here most important options still we don't even use them all.
