SW03ES Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 Well finally I got around to getting some pics takes of the Lexus, check em out and tell me what you think?
SW03ES Posted August 22, 2003 Author Posted August 22, 2003 Here ya go: Theres a couple more in the gallery.
bbsal Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 looks sweet!i thought your car was black?anyway looks really good.i love the interior!
SW03ES Posted August 22, 2003 Author Posted August 22, 2003 Nope, "Black Garnet Pearl" it looks black until the sun hits it, then it turns a deep metallic purple. The color for some reason doesn't photograph well, its actually 3 or 4 shades darker than it looks. The color in the gallery that is the icon for the ES gallery is the same color. The one thats my avatar isn't my lexus, but its the same color. I guess that the guy who took it parked it so there was no light hitting it, so it looks darker.
piggyncsu Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 what is the name of the exterior color??? it looks mighty purdy, and i do LOOOOVEEEE that color...minus the lights of course ;) i always thought those lights were scarey. can i kidnap your car? im sure it would love me just as much as i do it....mmmmmmmm...
bbsal Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 wow really?even if mine is in the brightest sun it still looks deep black as you can see in my pics.yours looks kind of black cherry almost.cool looking though!
SW03ES Posted August 22, 2003 Author Posted August 22, 2003 The lights have taken me the longest to get used to, but I like them now. I wanted silver originally because it hides those lights, but the ball and chain wanted the garnet. It is a gorgeous color, one of the richest colors on the road I think. Thanks for the compliments guys!
SW03ES Posted August 22, 2003 Author Posted August 22, 2003 The new ES comes in a straight black too like yours bbsal.
bbsal Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 hmm.let me stop before i put myself in debt!!lol. i kind of like that black cherry look like yous but i would have to see the all black to match what i like better.probably would like both! :D
SW03ES Posted August 22, 2003 Author Posted August 22, 2003 The new ES is a little stark in black I think because its monotoned, and it doesnt have a chrome strip running around the beltline like the GS and LS do it makes it a little stark. Everyone I've talked to likes it in the garnet more than the black. Lexus also has "Black Cherry" which comes on the GS and LS, and its more purple, not quite as good looking IMHO. The Black Garnet is only availiable on the ES.
bbsal Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 your probably right!it would most likley look to plain like its missing something.im impressed with yours though!
ProZac Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 Inside looks SOOOOOOOOOOO NICE!!!! OMG, it looks SOOO soft and beautiful! Good show! ~brian~
Matthew_McNally Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 absolutely beautiful mate. I really like the 03 ES - but unfortunately we don't get the ES in the UK!!!! that is a gorgeous colour too mate - you should be proud ;) Thanks, here's one more, just for Matt. and the perfect finishing touch!
MCV20 Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 i love the Interior... "where is the mable floor and crystal light!"
H8R Proof Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Your car is just sooo beautiful. I'm going to go throw myself on my bed now and cry!! :P
SpeedRacer959 Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Love the interior. Looks like something out of the future. Well it is for me...I'll wait until 2010 before I can afford it Oh, and it'll have to have around 100k miles. Take care of it for me! :D
steviej Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Ok, now I got to do a thread like this. I'm not jealous, just envious cause your car looks freshly detailed and mine is being rained on as we type. Hey steve, how did you get that scratch? gotcha.......just kidding my friend. (I just had to do that) My friend just got the same color ES. I even got $200 from Lexus when she bought it just for referring her. $$$$ ching ching $$$$
SW03ES Posted August 23, 2003 Author Posted August 23, 2003 You can get $200 for referring people to Lexus? Wow, I should have made enough by now to pay for the car LOL. Believe it or not, I took those pictures today after a fresh wash, we came back from a trip yesterday and it was covered in bugs, and there was a torrential storm tonight. Luckily she was sleeping warm and cozy in the garage. I had Spaghetti O's and Carla had cereal for dinner so I wouldnt have to get it dirty driving to a restaurant or a grocery store LOL. Speed, I'll take good care of it for ya, and how about this, I wont drive much? ;) Thanks for the compliments guys!
