Starlight looks pretty nice. I kind of wanted it when I ordered my car, but would have had to wait much longer to get it. Lexus got one in about 5 months later and I went and looked at it. Like it about the same as my Obsidian, but it's probably going to end up being a more rare colour, which would be kind of neat I guess.

If a metallic black was available for the IS here in the US, I would've definitely considered getting my IS in it.

Default Starlight Black Color

Why doesn't the IS in the USA have this color?
