The fancy square-binding G brochure that I picked up at the deаler's introductory event has a drool-worthy four-panel foldout of Lakeshore Slate cаr in profile. The only problem is that's sort of dark, for dramatic effect. Well, that and the fact that you have to go to the deаler to get the brochure, and if you go to the deаler you can see Lakeshore Slate in person, on an '06 if not an '07.

My Dealer still has no brochures and they only had a Black Obsidian and a Platinum Ice at their lot

I finally saw it in person. As beautiful as Lakeshore is, I think I'll switch boats and get the Blue Slate.

Goofy, sweet pics. Generally, I dislike white, but that IP looks downright mean. I noticed this year that they tried to keep the sport and non-sports looking somewhat uniform with the wheels. The sport and non-sport wheels look very similar (at least to me).

Is it just me, or does the sport bumper on the IP make the car look lower than the Black Obsidian with the normal bumper?? Not saying that it IS lower, but it just makes it look lower......to my eyes at least.

I don't know for a fact, but I think the sport models are lower. At least when you look at the IP sport model vs. the black obsidian non sport w/ sport wheels above, the black obsidian non sport seems to have more gap between the wheel and fender. Maybe I'm seeing things.

The specs say that both the RWD and the Sport have the same ground clearance at 5.3". It just seems like the Sport bumper gives the "appearance" that it is lower.
