Lexus individual color?

Does Lexus offer an individual option like BMW where you can special order specific colors? Saw a 3IS that was definitely not USB. Looks like BMW Monaco Blue or Onyx Blue. Like a dark blue metallic color. Looked pretty good.

negative. some of the colors are attached to certain packages. if you saw a color that isn't a factory color, it is more likely wrapped or painted or even plasti-dipped.

Yeah I thought it was painted or wrapped but then I saw an old asian lady driving and thought maybe it could be from Lexus.

Previous to MY 16 Lexus offered the IS in a color called Deep Sea Mica, a really deep, navy-metallic-blue, quite striking IMO, see pic.

I considered Autumn shimmer before I bought my NX. It looks great in direst sunlight but once the clouds appear the color just looks awful Almost like black with no pop. Those photos posted above look nowhere like the real color in person.
