SW03ES Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 I was driving by Lexus of Rockville tonight and thought I'd stop real quick to look at a blue LS430 sitting there (I've been toying with the idea of trading up to an LS430 some time this summer, but thats another thread ;) ) and I saw an 05 ES in the blue shale mica with a grey interior. Very nice! I'd never seen one in this color before and I was very impressed. Comes with a black interior too, very nice. If I were buying an 05 thats probably what I would get, visually interesting but hides dirt better than my Black Garnet. Can't beat the glow of the garnet when its clean though... Just thought I'd share... Oh and there was a silver UL LS430 sitting there with black interior...thats what I'd get...maybe a CL package. Probably won't do it though...

Tsquared Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 I saw an 05 ES in the blue shale mica with a grey interior. Very nice! ← That was my first choice when I saw it. I purchased the ES for my wife and I let her pick out the color - Oasis Green Pearle. It looks sharp but I am partial to blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviej Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 I saw one in the showroom the other day that was very similar to the Parchment Pearl the GS comes in. Very very sharp for a white car. It shimmered in the sun almost like Mother of Pearl. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if I'd get the grey or ivory leather yet however. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted January 14, 2005 Author Share Posted January 14, 2005 I was surprised to find out it doesn't come with an ivory interior! Thats very strange for Lexus, only grey and black. Tsquared-That green is very sharp too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I had to choose, I'd personally take the grey over the black especially dealing with salt in the winter up here. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted January 15, 2005 Author Share Posted January 15, 2005 Having had grey and black interiors I'd always choose black. Gray does stay cleaner, but black is so sharp, it never gets old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93lexuses Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 I agree it is a very nice color. I think that the black interior would look really nice with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vcv10guy Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 That looks very sharp with that color and interior combination. I'm sure it looks even more gorgeous in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexusfreak Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 I wonder if they are going to offer that colour on the all new 2006 GS? B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
