USB on white looks nice,but I wouldn't want to keep white leather clean. Same goes with an obsidian exterior. In any case I like SGM on red or USB on black.

Interesting to see fans of red interior thus far. I will admit I wasn't a fan of the red leather initially but it has grown on me since buying my 2012 Nebula grey with red leather.

I have SFP on white, but I wanted SFP on black. I would not recommend white interior as its a PIA to keep clean. My seats have light black smudges on them from the seatbelts and clothing.

I had initially wanted SFP on red but the blue sticking threw me off; kinda felt like too many colours going on. I ended up with black interior but the red will always hold a special spot in my heart, haha.

I know I'm in the minority, but I'll still choose Obsidian as an exterior and black alcantara/leather as the interior. Black cars will always have that luster, even though it requires so much time and effort to maintain, but I do love the shine after a proper detail. USB would be my second favorite, mainly because it was so iconic to the F performance marquee before Lexus diluted it and offered the color to the F-sport variants. I chose the black alcantara/leather because after sitting in one, taking on sharp corners and getting to some high speed straights, I like how the material holds you in your seat firmly. I used to be one who always wanted leather seating, but from what I have read and seen with members, it's more likely the leather will fade or look worse for wear than alcantara, which I thought it would've been the opposite.

Maybe I'm a little bias....lol, but SFP on red interior is it!!! I searched over a year for this color combo, perfect condition car, low miles, 1 owner. Wasn't going to buy an F without this color combo! Finally found it and had to have it!
I do like the USB w/ red interior as well as the NGP with red interior also. I have seen SFP with the orange interior in person and it actually looked pretty good! Very rare color combo. Can't be many of those out there.

I totally agree with Bnizzle! The obsidian exterior is so understated, elegant and evil looking all at the same time. It is a pita to keep looking sharp, but if you don't have the time nor the patience then it's not the right color for you.

The orange calipers looks really hot.

I like the White with black interior or red interior.

USB with black interior of course.

Silver with red interior looks great too.
