Default IS-F: What color & options would you choose?

If you had a choice of color combos, what would be your preference on the new IS-F?

What would be your first, second or even third option?





UPDATE 3/22: The color seen above is Ultrasonic Blue w/black interior and black and white two-tone seats.

I wonder if Lexus will designate F-only colors. Maybe they could bring back that sport yellow that they had for it IS300, or introduce a sport red in addition to the blue that they are using for the display model. That would be nice, but I really wouldn't mind the Tungsten Pearl that I currently have in my IS350.
So here are my three choices:
Black on black
Silver on black
Granite on black

Burgundy would also be very cool. I recently saw an M45 in Crimson Roulette and I thought it looked amazing.

I like the Matador Red on the IS350, it will look great on the IS-F too, it's a gorgeous paint. However, a darker, burgundy like red like the Noble Spinel Mica on the LS460 should look great on the car as well.

Default I'm a fan of white...

I actually would love a very pearlescent White (Starfire is not pearl enough for me...) exterior with a white interior and silver CF trim. The only reason I didn't get Crystal White when I purchased the car was because it wasn't pearl enough to highlight the car's lines and curves.

White makes any car very clean and distinctive. The white just has to stand out very shiny (like a 3-coat process), instead of a flat/unidimentional white.


As for my second choice, Red with a black interior would be more aggressive. That'll be a cop magnet though.

And finally, for the IS, I'm biased with Blue for now. Blue with a black interior...

1. blue on black
2. blue on white
3. silver on black

I wouldn't take black exterior because its too hard to maintain even though i love it when clean! and not the red on black because:
