What is the difference between Infrared and Radiant Red? Regional variations? I wonder what the codes are for these names.

For me it’s Infrared/Radiant Red with the tan interior. Like people have said, there’s a reason Lexus used it for the first LF-LC concept and the LC500 debut.

Saying that, Nightfall Mica always leaps out at me when I see the thumbnail for the Doug Demuro review on YouTube 100 times per day!

I have Nightfall Mica with the tan interior. Love it! Nightfall Mica is at its best in sunlight. It's a mix of blue, purple, and black.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it were true. White is extremely popular these days.

We mostly sold white cars at my dealership. Silver and gold were the other two most popular colors on a Lexus.

Default Colors!?

Guys

I am probably about a year away from getting an LC.

looking for a 19 Performance LC500.

I cannot decide between the three colors
( Infrared , ultra white or the atomic silver/ silver)

I love the infrared but wonder if that color will
Be a color waiting to get vandalized or a ticket

What color do you currently own ? did you also
Struggled with choosing from the three colors?
Any regrets ? And what was the reason you
Choose your final color? Arggh .. cannot afford
All three colors

Mine is infrared and it's a very stricking color that makes the car really stand out more than the other two IMO. It's exclusive and unique paint process is jaw dropping in person (car is painted silver, sanded then painted with a special translucent red paint). Obviously, color is all in personal taste but the white and silver will definitely hide surface scratches and swirl marks much better. The red would also be the hardest one to color match, the tri-coat white a close second while the silver would be the easiest of the three.

Thanks SuperGT

I previously owned an Indigo blue ( Dark Blue)
SC430 and it was a bear to maintain.
The Dark Blue like Black showed every swirl and dust
and had to be washed with the two bucket method

whereas when I owned the pearl white LS
and the silver SL, it was such a different maintenance
experience.

looking forward to hearing others weight in

I've got the Nighfall Mica with Toaster Caramel interior. It's like the Dark Blue you describe. It shows everything. But it was unique and rare...and I've had a lot of silver with black interior lately, so I was ready for something different. But silver is the easiest to maintain. I just got an Ultra White GS F with red interior. It seems a little more effort to maintain than silver for some reason. But the nice thing is that is stays cool inside after sitting in the sun for several hours. Infrared is a beautiful red!!!

I have a white one with red interior. Personally I prefer this combo. My previous cars are all white/red coupe, so I am biasd.
The red one is really attractive, but Lexus does not offer red interior for that, so I pass it cuz I do not like the yellow/black interior.
The silver one is not my type, as silver color reminds me of Corolla.
