JRA2000TL

I currently own an 11 ES350 smoky granite mica / light gray UL pkg with the ML audio. I absolutely love the car and had to fly over 850 miles away to pick it up and drive it home due to it being a low mileage car in a color combo I wanted with the super hard to find UL pkg. I looked hard at the LS460s also, and I may upgrade to one of to those next. My neighbor has a gorgeous 2010-2012 bright blue (deep sea mica) with the 5 spoke sport wheels, but it has tan interior. I see Lexus made that car with black interior. I wonder how rare a deep sea mica on black with the sport wheels and the ML system would be? I've never seen one out there.

Does anyone own one or have any idea how rare they are? I'm unfortunately picky with my cars, and it seems like this is color combo with those wheels and fully optioned is a unicorn.

I'll be honest, I've been looking for a very long time now for the right 460 myself and I must say out of what must have been a thousand cars browsed online with blue in one of my possible colors in have never seen that combo. I'm just as particular with cars myself and I dont know if I'm ever finding the right car. I actually started looking at some other brands just recently.

I know that feeling. It took me 8 months for me to find the one I wanted and it was in Arizona so I had to get another forum member to go and check it out before I committed.

I have a car likely nearly identical to your neighbor's...a '12 LS-L, ultra-lux, deep sea mica/very light tan interior. Air, ML, driver monitor thing on the steering column, and 19" wheels but 'regular' suspension tuning.

There were a surprising, IMO, number of L cars built with the touring suspension option. If anything, you'd think they'd have gone even cushier, rather than firmer, on suspension.

Eventually, I may experiment with putting a touring suspension computer in it, along with the giant OEM brakes (now that I know what is needed and that it can be done pretty easily, once you find parts). We're planning on a move back to CO, and that state can be hard on brakes.

Be ready to travel for it and/or have it shipped, when you find one. I'm in Fort Worth, TX, and bought mine from a place in north Atlanta. Had a friend there check it out while I was on the phone with him.

Extremely rare with the black interior
