This is a random thought, but I think the chances of seeing an IS500 out in the wild right now would be higher for a LE Incognito. At least until production continues and there are thousands of IS500s out there by 2025. I'd be really curious to see what the dominant colour will be by then!

By 2025, Incognito will be the rare color.

Lol, I know it's USB, I thought it was which color would you like your IS500 in. Wishful thinking?! Didn't help that I might have been sipping on bourbon that night.

Implying Iridium looks better after a drink or two?

I still marvel at how Lexus managed to make "silver" look so interesting with Iridium. I think it's got a slightly darker shade than Silver Lining Metallic and more flake. I don't like having the same paint color on two cars in a row, but I have to say I wouldn't mind having an Iridium IS 500 myself.

Incognito's lead is shrinking.

That is to be expected as the LE will always be limited to a total of ~500 units so as the "Performance" continues to arrive at dealers and such, Incognito will gradually be overcome by the other colors. I am suspecting that USB or UW will ultimately take the lead

I'm honestly surprised at how few Caviar and Cloudburst there are on the poll. I expected them to be the more popular colors since in general I see a lot of dark grey and black vehicles on the road.

Also, It's a bit petty of me, but I hope that not that many people get Infrared because I want my car to be more rare. Any one else feel that way towards their color choice?

Voted Grecian Water as that's the color I have on order, didn't see the "Owners Only" but it's coming...

That's the color I wanted but was told it may be months before could get one and that was only if the dealer got lucky and one was allocated to them. I was told ordering wasn't possible. My second choice was an LE so found one back in January, picked up on 2/5. The original dealer I was going to get the GW from, still hasn't received one.

Good luck!

Ended up with Atomic Silver. It was my third choice. I wanted GW or USB, but happy with how Atomic Silver is more of a sleeper color. Also going to de-badge the car so you have to really know what it is to know that it is not just another car.
