The pictures Nilsgunnar posted looks to me like they are of the color "midnight blue" not the ultra sonic blue.
A bit strange, because the early brouchure says you can't get the f-sport model in midnight blue.

In norway according to the brouchure, we don't get the midnight blue with the f-sport.
But we can get the sunroof on the f-sport.
However we can not get the rear window electric sunshade on the f-sport.

The rear sunshade is just gimmick. Never thought it is necessary to have on an IS.

Yes, F sport exclusive, if I decide to get the 3IS I will have to figure out how to get a Canadian one. Originally Posted by Mr. Burns

That is weird, I am almost thinking of getting a Mercedes C coupe with a panorama roof now that they are not giving me my USB and talking 4cyl engines, if I have to pay over 40k for a 4cyl I might as well get a sunroof not out of the 80's. First time in a while I am thinking of moving away from Lexus.Well, we get the blue paint in Europe but we don't get the sunroof on F-sport. What a strange decision huh.

I agree. I think it is too dark to be USB. But i also think it is to light to be Midnight blue.Originally Posted by magne

The blue car i have posted pictures of have the color "Opal Blue". This i a spesialcolor, and will not be available on the prodution cars. I like this color better than the other blue.
Picture from Lexus Sweden:

Left: Preproduction IS in "Opal Blue". Right: GS in "Midnight Blue".

I have to say that the "opal blue" looks stunning.
If the car had been delivered in this color, I would probably have ordered a blue one.
The USB color is a tad to light in shade for my taste, but it also looks good.
And a big thumbs up for self healing paint on the new IS, at least in europe
