Does anyone know if there will be new color choices for the IS in 08? Reason asking is that I would like a pure wite IS350 but the closest color option is Starfire Pearl, which can look many different shades of white/silver depending on the light. Any information would be appreciated.

I just got my IS350 on Thursday. Starfire Pearl with Black interior. Luxury Package, Navigation and Mark Levinson. One of the most important things for me was the fact that it has no rear spoiler. (Tough to find. A couple of dealerships flat out told me that in 2007, they no longer make IS350's without the spoiler. BS!!!) It also has the upgraded exhaust. Do you mind how much did u pay before tax and tags?

with the following options: NV - Navigation XE - X Package PT - Premium Plus Package HL - HID Headlamps XM RADIO INSTALLED AT $825 Rear Lip Spoiler installed at $355 Rear lower bumper valance (bodykit) installed at $1500 plus $300 in fees etc ( I have no idea) Note: I am almost positive that the dealership is trying to make more money off of me on that rear lower bodykit addition. Since, if the car didn't have the X Package it would cost me about $1800 to have the rear and lower price added. I am guessing that they are overcharging me for the bodyshop and mechanic's time. Price break down before the addition of XM, Rear lip spoiler, reaer lower bumper bodykit addition MSRP INVOICE TMV (what others are paying in my area, which is my price) 42,590 37, 199 39,370 So my price would be 39, 370 + 2680 additional options + $300 in admin fees - $500 discount on some of the additional options => 41, 850 The other big problem is that I want white and in my area (region) which Maryland, DC, Northern Virginia white is not a color that Lexus builds for this region. However, the dealership, has a white one with these options minus the additonal options they they just received from another dealership (probably one another region). So is this a good price or should I negotiate harder, since this the first set of numbers that they have thrown my way, or take this price? And what region of the country does Lexus build the white (Starfire pearl) IS 350's in mass.

How many people out there have gotten this option and how much did it cost? Also how many people have gotten the sport package and how to do you determine if you have it if you use the build your own Lexus from the Lexus website?
