I'm personally just going gloss black, but a little annoyed that the mirrors and rear IS500 badges weren't black chrome on these cars to match the side badges. I know this car is kind of a parts bin car made up of parts from other cars with a few bespoke items, but feels like they didn't quite finish the job with some of the obvious omissions.

Just picked mine up and the chrome really stands out on the caviar.

A CyberYuck (what I call it) parked by me at the Portillo's in Schaumburg, IL. That thing is so ugly, Beauty & the Beast?

Good timing.




Or bad timing, depending on how one looks at it.

I think that most EV's like the CyberYuck are more of a toaster. Plug it in push the button and go!
