My first choice was Black Sapphire Pearl on Black, with Obsidian Black on Black a close second. I was faced with placing an order for the Sapphire for a unit that was still in Production in Japan, so I opted for the Black which had just landed on the Showroom floor. I'm glad with my choice as this large car has bold vertical surfaces that diminish its appearance as colours lighten up. Not unlike the slimming effect that dark clothing has on corpulent men or women.

Somewhat related, just came upon a Lexus flash ad with a color slider that lets you preview the exterior color combos real quick, of course internet-style:

Sorry for the off topic....
I would like to know more about Obsidian. Does it has single state paint?
I personally want to order my LS460 Obsidian on Cashmere or Alasbaster.
If it is single stage paint then I would prefer Sapphire Black so can someone please confirm if obsidian has clear coat on.

Lexus Obsidian - the one I have - is black enamel with two coats of clearcoat. I don't know how many coats of black enamel there are, but it has to be more than two.

I think some HK people love them I've seen more gold color cars there than anywhere else since I was a kid, gold mercedes, RR, etc..
This gold paint on the LS460 is particularly unattractive, I've seen better versions on other cars, like the champagne gold on the Audi A8 I've seen in person actually is not bad at all.
