I too love the ceramic, very classy! I was concerned because I've seen some interiors that looked ceramic, but they weren't two-tone (ceramic front with black back). I do not love the ALL white look. It's a bit too much.

Alright, so probably going with the ceramic leather on the premium GT. Just need to decide on DIB or guard and whether or not to go with the PP. Ahhhh! Our first world problems, I know. ;)

Guard is so close to magnetic depending on the light, wish they put more green into it.
agree. I will say the pics from the test ride going around are pretty nice. It looks fantastic when some of the green shows up. When darker, it looks like Magnetic. Which is a nice color, but not special. Guard should be special. Cant wait to see all these in person.

I think in really bright sun like noon or 1pm on a summer day it will really look great any other time it will look more or less grey with a hint of green.

Guard definitely has green in it. It won't look close to magnetic at all in almost all lights.

Magnetic looks light silver in bright light and dark light looks almost gunmetal.

Guard looks Green in some light light, Blue in darker light and maybe a moonsoon grey in standard light.

Ill make a wager that many Guard buyers will switch when they see Guard in person to Ignot or Magnetic.

Guard looks like a metallic Steelblue with more gray in it. Not totally sold on it, since I never liked SteelBlue
I saw Guard in person at the Austin Auto Show yesterday on both a Mustang and the new F-150. Both looked closer to a green metallic than a blue. After seeing it it looks closer to a grey with a green hue in it.

If I don't get Guard, Magnetic wouldn't be anywhere near the top my list. The only reason not to get Guard would be because it looks too much like Magnetic.

I quickly went from Black, to Magnetic, and settled on Ingot Silver. The rear looks best in Ingot Silver, Race Red, or Ruby Red in my opinion, and that's what people will be seeing the most from me on the road...
The rear :hail:

Not a chance. Guard's my number one since it's the closest thing to Highlander that we can get. I've had a gray car for the past six years and won't be getting another one ever again. The color just washes all of the detailing out. Magnetic is the epitome of a dull color choice to me; it's like Generic Gray or something.

Ingot looks great though. I'm not a fan of silver usually, but it looks fantastic on the S550. That's my fallback so far.

Exactly.

Guard is my current choice, but Id switch to the blue before ingot or magnetic. Black is too much effort, red/yellow too showy, white is too plain.
