I noticed that too. Deep Sea Mica would look awesome on an F-Sport.

I'm probably going to buy a GS350 next year, and Meteor Blue is one colour I'm seriously considering. It looks fantastic on the lexus.com visualizer, but all the actual pictures I've seen of it make it look much darker than that, and the shape of the body panels doesn't come through the way it does in pictures of, say, liquid platinum. Is it really as dark as it looks in the picture?

It's beautiful and the chrome looks awesome on the wheels. Lexus should offer chrome as an option.

I have meteor blue with flaxen and constantly get raves about the color.

@Fishbike-The Lexus visualizer does not do this color justice. The panels do look better in person especially in bright light.

It's a bad idea that an F-Sport has fewer color options than a basic GS. It should be the reverse : there should be F-Sport-only colors that are not available to a basic GS.

Here's a few more pictures. I also went with the Flaxen interior, but I usually get black. This combo was just too nice not to pass up
