Absolutely love the Atomic Silver. In September, bought a 2017 ES300h. Wanted the atomic silver but no one had one within a 500 miles radius so got the silver lining metallic. I love the color but was second choice. What is the interior color?

Bought the same exact same car a couple of months ago and still loves the Atomic silver.
had all the windows tinted and a viper 5706v alarm/remote start installed. Nothing else.
and yes the front license plate ruins the front look.

Great choice! Got one just like it in my garage! (bought it in July).
Already applied a coat of Cquartz ceramic coating to it. My wife said I was going to rub the paint off of it if I continue to rub on it daily!! Got the windows tinted at 20%.
You’re gonna love this car! Congratulations!

Nice, but now get the factory side-moldings. They're not expensive, will save the doors from dings, and I think they add character to the side view since it's pretty plain as it is.

The car looks great.
If I had to recommend one thing to spend some extra money on it would be paint protection film for the front end of the car.
The atomic silver is a strikingly gorgeous color, but it is a 4 (maybe 5) stage pearl finish, and it does not do well with touch-ups, even touch-ups of small stone nicks. Thus, I'd recommend getting paint protection film for the full front bumper, full hood, full front fenders, and, possibly, the A pillars and leading edge of the roof. Getting that kind of coverage won't be inexpensive, but it would be the best investment that you can make to keep the car looking showroom new.
Enjoy the car.
