There are a few more colors, a fog light indicator light will be in the dash cluster just like the headlight, vsc off switch are just some of the major changes. The rest are small updates and revisions. I will post the rest of the changes shortly.

Anyone know since they are offering the HIDs seperately in 07 - would they offer an upgrade kit for 06s or should I just break down and buy my kit from Xenondepot already?

The HID lights will be a stand alone option in 07. This was confirmed to me by the general manager at a dealer this past Thursday. In fact, most of the cars(is350's only) are going to be built with the HID"s in 07. Just like in 06 with the 18 inch wheels. The 06 was going to offer 18 inch wheels as an option. Well, while it is an "option", they all came with 18 inch wheels and consumers really didn't have the "option". The HID's will be they same way in 07 on all of the 350's. So now, if you don't want to pay for them, you will have to special order your car.

Yes the 07 will have HID as a standalone option which includes AFS. If you do buy an aftermarket HID kit, you will not have the luxury of AFS.

Black Onyx is replaced by Obsidian (212)
The Obsidian black is supposed to be the blackest black Lexus has ever produced and will be shared with the GS and LS. Supposedly a mirror-black finish, expect it to look astonishing - when clean.

Default '07s are arriving very soon

I got the call from my dealer today. My car is scheduled to arrive in Houston on August 23rd.
It's a 2007 black obsidian ST/ML/Nav.

Is that a special ordered car for you or an allocation?
