Ultra White replaces Starfire Pearl, Liquid Platinum replaces Mercury Metallic
wow, kinda sad. SFP earned quite the rep just like SGM. Farewell

That is big news about the white paint. Has any other Lexus model used Ultra White? What is it? Metallic or a straight white? I can't see why they'd dump SFP when most of the competitors are adding metallic whites.

Where's the 'YAWN' button. 8 years without a significant refresh... WTF Lexus!?!

At the very least, put the new spindle grille in.

Yeah, but looking at my 2006 in the driveway it still looks fresh, inside and out. Lexus did well with the 2nd gen IS
