Hi IS300 people,

Just wondering if there were any other blues for the IS300 besides Intensa Blue Pearl (on the sedan NOT the sportcross.) I know the latest is Intensa Blue pearl (2002 and 2003 models) Was the 2000 and 2001 blue colors called something different? Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you

Hi Alexlude - welcome to the club buddy!

I am based in the UK - so what I am saying may not apply over on your side on the pond.

In the UK the colours changed around September 2001 - I bought mine around then.

The blue color changed - from Royal Sapphire to Stratchcaron Blue (so did the green).

The dealer showed me both colours side by side, and I could barely see a difference to be honest.

But - if you are asking because you are looking for touch up paint or such - then I would imagine that there have been two blue colours in the last few years.

2001 Blue IS 300's were called Spectra Blue Metallic (It was a darker, deeper blue, which is now discontinued)

2002 & 2003's are called Intensa Blue Pearl
