The name Unicorn always sounded so lame to me lol. What is the name of that pearl paint job? I'm thinking about painting my car and it's either going to be this pearl or the glacier frost mica. The Starfire pearl looks too white for me. Also I will call out the huge elephant in the room. This car has had some damage over it's life. Look at the hood and driver side headlight. Look at the huge gap. Accident or the headlight is some cheap ebay replacement. The seller is funny. Just because the Autocheck doesn't list an accident on the report, DOESN'T mean the car hasn't been in one.

Seats look normal to me. Seats will look like that in 40k miles is you are not conditioning your seats.

Why does everybody assume a 6 cylinder is a Vee.

When I was into bimmers same thing.. BMW never made a Vee6 but time and time again people would put say its a V not and inline.


FULLY EQUIPPED with a 3.0L V6, automatic transmission with


Anyway..

Yes super rare color combination.. hence the designation unicorn.

Most if not all lexus seats end up being beat down if not conditioned on the regular. The pipeing on the seats although tasteful was prob the worst as far as longevity. I've never seen a gs without them cracked. Also the steering wheels all tend to be worn to the nub at the 9 & 11 o clock positions on every gs I see. I'm picky I guess.

The 2003 color is crystal white. Kinda looks like french vanilla cream. Sorta yellowish. Its a nice white.

Since we are speaking about wear, why in the hell does the Lexus air bag emblem wear so fast/much??? It's not like we are using it every day! Thanks for the reply on this beautiful color. I love this and the glacier frost. Think I'll go with Glacier frost just to give my body an updated look.

Lol. See this is what I never understood about it because the unicorn isn't rare, it isn't even real. I guess it's because the unicorn is white? I'm gong to start calling the rare black onyx with saddle GS3 the Deboniar Stallion lol.

Yep! Since I'm in Houston where Kandy paint experts are located everywhere, I wanted to go with a Kandy Brandywine to mimic the Black Cherry, but I'm leaning towards the pearl paint jobs now. I've grown to love my gold paint job (doesn't show as much dirt and scratches as black), but I'm looking for a change now.
