Looks great in white mate :D

Did you move the alloys between the two cars then as I notice they swap around in the pics?

How does the new one compare to the old one then?

ya mate..i paid for those wheels when i upgraded to 18s from 17s on my previous car..and also think they look better than the OEM sport 18s..thanks :)

it drives nicer..the auto is so smooth. only done 4.5k miles. swapped the wheels n also took my k&n filter from the other car to this one.

Is it a solid white mate or is it Caspian Sky??? Mine is the latter and is down on the log book as Blue. When i got pulled coming home off backshift one night the young cop looked at me like I was mental when i said it was blue!!!!!!!!!

Pictures are spot on, wheels look great spot on, enjoy....... :winky:

Looks nice mate, is that now your third one? :whistling:

Perhaps the autolock has been switched off? Does the sport feel any different to the SE-L?

I wouldn't have let them get away with the wheels like that though, would've got a set of the standard 17s off eBay and p/exd your car with those (keeping the 18s in the garage) - that way you could either sell one of the sets of 18s on, or have two sets to swap whenever you feel like a change :)

Always had my douts about the Caspian sky crack with mine.......It looks more like a pearlescent white to me, but I have never really questioned it with the dealership because you just take it as gospel what they tell you. Been on Lexus Uk and it does not even show it available in Caspian Sky now. Can anyone tell me??????????

Couple of pics, one the day i spotted it and one about 5 month after i got it.....

hmmm..good idea. didnt think bout that. :) na it diesnt feel different coz its a sport. think its more cosmetic than technical. only diff is the auto now..which is real nice n smooth. ya 3rd..wife has said i cant have another for a while now. lol

Love the new one matey,

Looks great, but think i like the sport wheels better :D

Happy motoring :D

At last - another Caspian Sky owner! Obviously I'm massively biased, but I reckon it's the best colour out there :D . I was also pretty amused when I saw it down as blue in the log book. Also, I've not yet seen a photo online that truly reflects what it looks like. When I first saw it in the showroom, I thought it was white and that there were blue lights shining on it to make it look sparklier. It was only when I got it outside that I realised what it really was.

Nice one mate - looks brilliant.

Give it a good detailing session - something like 2-3 coats of Carlack68 sealant Glaze, and a couple of coats of Carnauba Wax (R222 or P21s). It'll stay cleaner and be easy to look after. It probably won't need a polish as the dealers should have done that for you ;)

Lol, she let you have 3 though so must be pretty forgiving! :whistling:

Have they really discontinued caspian sky? That's a shame, definitely my favourite colour in the bunch - love the way it looks in the sun (I'd also call it a pearlescent white rather than light blue)

Spot on, nice to know i'm not cracking up. I had an SE in Codoxton Slate with beige leather before but this done it for me, had to have it. Looks awesome in the white too, especially sat on them wheels :)
