Talking What color IMHO

An IS in White first caught my attention, then I saw Black which has always been my favorite. My last two cars have been Black but you must be totally dedicated. I can't stand to see a spot on the car so it was a lotta work. I believe the Blue and Green will also require Black's dedication. I saw the Millennium Silver and was taken by the elegance and the probable simplicity of taking care of the car. I bought the Silver. I really like the other colors as the IS looks good in all the shades. If you're young get one of the more spectacular colors like the Blue or Yellow

Well.... I have the Millenium Silver Metallic and I love it. Metallic Silver is a classic car color. I live in Michigan and can't think of another winter with a Black or other dark colored car. I think the Graphite Grey looks great when it's clean as does the Black and Green colors. The graphite grey was my first choice until I saw one dirty.

Funny thing about colors with me... I really wanted to get the LSD. When I bought my IS300 last month there were only three Silver ones with LSD in the US. Two were sold and the third had a deposit on it when my sales rep called the dealers. I almost went with a Green IS with Ivory interior that had the LSD. I think the contrast betwen the dark exterior and the light interior looks great. Then I saw two Silver IS's in the dealer's back lot (no LSD). Both were still coverred inside and out with all of the shipping protection. I thought the color looked great and was pscyhed to get a car that no one had even test driven.

On the other hand, if you're younger and not married then go for the yellow. I would have a blast with it for about 5 days but can't imagine driving around in it with a suit and tie on. ;-)

I like the white since it is so clean. Silver is my second choice.

SPECTRA MICA BLUE J/K silver and Blue are causing me to be really indecisive!

Should I get a 5-speed guys? I do alot of driving in the snow I'm nervous it might handle poorly especially considering its RWD I got a deal on a BRAND NEW IS300 for 27,200 1.89% for 60 months!!

Check Lexus.com and you can see the new colors. I am glad I have my IBP because it has been discontinued.

I personally like all the colors except for the Solar Yellow.

Personally though, the GGP was the color that cought my eye the most, hence the reason I waited for it.

To each their own!
