Im really in between the blue and the black. The white would be nice except its soo hard to match if it need to be repainted and clear bras look horrible on it.

RED LFA - my deposit has been down on this at the lexus dealership since the first LFA - concept car was announced. Same with the 600hL - looks like a couple more months that one will be in my driveway :-) The LFA looks like this time next year.

Lexus Monterey. I'm going with Black for the 600hL, but I can't imagine a sports car not in Red :-)

1st option = Smoky Granite (charcoal gray)

2nd option = Matador Red (red metallic)

90% chance I will end up getting Smoky Granite

The pearl white finnish took my breath away when I first saw it on an IS220d.

+1..

The first car I fell in love with was a 92 stealth twin turbo that was pearl white. From there on it was my fav color!

If I get the F...

Ultrasonic Blue Mica!!!! with the white leather interior.

My Volvo R is "Sonic Blue" and appears to be very similiar to the Lexus Blue

. . . . because the car looked like it was painted "pearl white" by a 9 year

I bought black...forgot how hard it is to keep black clean, but when it is, there's nothing like it. Put it this way, my local car wash is sure happy I bought black!

I have Ultrasonic Blue. If you havn't seen one you are missing out.

Black. I have a mobile detailer wash it every Tues. and if you keep up a religious washing/polishing/waxing regiment like that, the black paint is absolutely amazing. Just my $0.02.

Fan of the Blue, that seems to be the factory default color IMHO.. As I own a blue & compared it to other colors, the blue reflects the curves in daylight as none of the other color opt.. 2nd goes to the white. Just my two cents..

MERCURY METALLIC! This color will definitely be the best for resale when the time comes. If blue is so beautiful why don't major car makers have this color available all the time? Answer.....They don't have success with wild blues!

I bought Smokey Granite (IMO) the best color combo, matches the wheels better than any other color,also has tiny blue color specs in it when the sun shines on it.Better to keep clean than any other (hides the little things) and most importantly it's low key;a sleeper, and still a classy color that represents Lexus ,doesn't look wild like the blue---- which is a ticket lover..... lol

I would have to agree that Smokey Granite is a great color. However, my reason for not choosing this color is based on the fact that I live in Florida.
As you well know, it gets extremely hot down here and lighter colors fair much better in the sun. It can actually make a difference of 100 degrees or more on the surface of the metal in direct sun exposure. not to mention the heat build up on the inside, which causes an inordinate amount of time to cool down after entering the car in the heat of the day. I guess I'm to analytic when it comes to car colors. Like I have stated before, there is really is right or wrong color for this amazing vehicle, you must decide for yourself what blows your skirt up!

I went with the Mercury Metallic, the car looks sick when the city lights reflect on the car at night plus according to the dude at the Lexus dealership, it's also the least produced car (along with the Red Mica) of all the F's.

Are those really the least produced colors? Learn something new every day :D

According to the production sheet the dealership showed me. That was in March so I am not sure if that has changed.

I do hope (but doubt) that the new Terra cotta/black interior colour will be avaliable in Europe too.

i was gunna go for the black when i first even thought about the F but when i got to the dealer ship and saw the ultrasonic blue its unbelievable! I had to have it in that blue, the cars beautiful!

honestly i believe that any dark colors are so hard to keep and maintain from scratches, the more you try to take care of the car and park away from everyone the more scratches you will somehow get!!

Blue is the color that really got me interested in the IS-F, I think it looks gorgeous!

As far as the LFA, I think the Brownstone is my favorite color I've seen...
