Starlight Black!?
Is Starlight Black a color not available in the United States!?
Saw one or two pictures of it; looks awesome!!
Why don't they offer it here!?
If anyone has this color please post some detailed pictures.

here you go! under sunlight, there's gold flakes that will shimmer across. when its really sunny, its sort of dark brown-ish color.
at night, it looks like obsidian.

Very happy with Nebula Grey, but wouldn't liked a wider array of colors to chose from.
Not sure why Starlight Black is not available on US IS'.

Yeah and it is actually an extremely nice color indeed. My RX is stargazer and even when it's dirty it looks nice.

I am in Canada, My 2011 LS460 is Starlight Black Mica, color code 217. Color shown on pics can be misleading because it is hard to capture the true color by camera. To my eyes, that color is always true black. It only show light metallic sparkles under sunlight.
