so they're going to do Deep Sea Mica and Meteor Blue Mica? that's fine, they just don't normally do 2 blue colors on the GS at the same time.

great post....thanks for the photos!!

The 2010 RX had Black Sapphire, but not anymore. That was a common color with the GS, so the RX could add the Meteor Blue Mica color for MY12....who knows. The Hybrids have that sweet Black Opal Mica color...it's not blue, but it's nice...and VERY rare.

I agree, best green job i've seen in a while.

Also Matador Red is probably the best red color on any production sedan because it can be applied to sports versions and luxury versions as well. Such a deep and rich color, I love it. New Riviera looks fresh and its definetely going to be lighter hue but I have to see it in person to say if its a F-Sport color or not.

You must not have seen Noble Spinel mica, it's just as deep and rich, but darker and not as "orange" as the Matador Red, it's more suitable for the larger sedans like GS, ES and LS than the Matador Red, I do agree Matador Red is my favorite color for the IS and a gorgeous paint though ......

Also, the ES350 looks better with the former Ruby Red paint than the Matador Red available now, I have seen both parked side by side ......

I'm very glad that "krew" came through for us with the color palettes..

My standard preference of Starfire Pearl aside, I was impressed by the selection, especially with the new Nebula Grey Pearl that’s replacing the much-loved
Smoky Granite Mica across the lineup this year. I also thought the new Meteor Blue Mica also had plenty of character — it left me quite curious as to how it
would look on the full car, rather than just a sample side mirror.

Now, along with the exterior color palette, the interior leather colors & trim options were also displayed, as were the GS’ four available wheels.
Look for posts later today with photos of all the displayed options.
