Black's my favorite color for a sports sedan. But there are plenty of ultrasonic blue ISFs on this forum that look incredible.

Usb ftw!!!!

The reason I chose USB is because it's the only color exclusive to the IS-F. But some people like to be more subtle with the sleeper look, in which case all the other colors look good as well. My next fav color would be Starfire Pearl.

Starfire Pearl. I had a black IS250, with the soft paint and the grey undercoat was bad news for me. So I went opposite and got one that no one seems to have around me.

is the usb too noticeable? it's not crazy like yellow or something but it seems borderline. hard to tell. so torn btwn that and smokey granite which I think looks awesome esp with the wheels. of course dealer has usb only.

Matador Red for me. I also like Smoky Granite & Blue Onyx.

I don't really like the Ultrasonic Blue even for the IS-F.

^ FYI - Blue Onyx is not available on the IS-F. Is that the dark blue or the baby blue color?

Now that I've seen every color IRL, there's actually no color that I don't like for the F... I didn't like the Smoky Granite or Matador Red in the pictures but they look great in the sunlight. That said, my favorites are still SFP and Obsidian, with USB a close second. I think Lexus did really well with SFP, it's just a great color on the IS.
