Default Opaline Pearl: Available in "Spring"?

The early small brochure for the LS 460 that I got from the dealer indicates in a footnote that Opalin Pearl is available starting in "spring."

For people in the know, is this still true, and "spring" means March or so? Thank you.

Regards,
Can

I have the small brochure cannga is talking about and there is a color that states available in spring 2007. There is also a color that is available only on the LS600hL. I left the brochure at the office, but can confirm what cannga posted.

The e-brochure now available at Lexus.com--I didn't see the "Opaline Pearl" mentioned, but of course colors such as Truffle Mica have been dropped...

...it also says that Premium carpeted floor mats (an option) are available starting in Spring 2007, so that could be a general time period for some additional LS options coming online.

We're still waiting for those advanced safety features and more readily available RSES!

You must mean the teaser brochure that came out last April:

Yes it's there, but the most recent full brochure from 2 weeks ago, it has mysteriously disappeared:

My guess is Opaline Pearl may look like a very light bluish, or bluish silver color, I personally don't think it will work too well with the LS460, it's probably the last color I would consider even if it's available here . . .
