They would like to move this. Could be had for less. Winter closing in here in the N.E.

i have caviar which is a bit less interesting but there's so much sparkle (metal flake) in it, that it's amazing in brighter light. otherwise it looks just very dark gray. still love it though.
as for interior, i had light cream interior on my last vehicle so went with black on the LC, and love it. i think lexus overdoes the non-black on the interior (too much of a good thing).

anyway, i think the pickins' are going to be slim so i recommend doing a nationwide search on autotrader often. that's how i found mine, 900 mi. away!
NM looks best under sun and at night, but on cloudy days it looks not great at all.

I hear you. I feel blessed to have found a 2018 with only 1458 miles and a clean car fax 7 hours away. I saved 20k from the cost of a new one. Was a corporate car almost never driven. Car was in Buffalo two months before the snow flakes fall. Yes, they wanted to move a 471 hp car with RWD really quick!

Swirls in the paint or a dust magnet after 1 week of not
washing.

what has your experience been with the above colors?
I probably would choose red as a favourite. But, I only have the Color decision remaining and it’s a bit of a struggle. I will not purchase red as it would sit in the garage too much. Might have something to do with my being an introvert. I don’t want to stand out. So, cloudburst grey or nightfall blue are choices that Iwould be more comfortable with.

IMO, the introvert choice for me for the LC coupe would be Atomic Silver, the car looks really classy but not that eye-catching.

I have atomic silver. Easy to ‘keep clean. Closest current color is moonlight. Nice, too, and should also be easy to deal with.

I am enjoying the infrared, after ceramic coat and PPF in places, very easy to keep clean. For me, the color hi-lites the lines of the LC and turns heads where ever she lands.

I am mostly happy with my SGM. It's still a hair dark. The DMV title inspector actually noted it as Black.
😖
I really didn't want the lighter Atomic same as every other Silver car Silver. If I had had the ability, I'd probably have preferred the slightly lighter than SGM new Cloudburst Gray.
I May fix that someday.

We’ve had two LC500s

First was Infrared/black coupe All the kids spoke of it, asked, wanted to drive, 👍👍

Second was Cadmium orange/caramel convertible We’ve had a lot of very flashy rides that were orange, have two now. I expected pizazzz.
Fail. No one, and I mean no one, ever said a thing about that car. They might have noticed but no rise, no interest, no joy. No one knows what cadmium looks like but this car was dull brown in anything other than the brightest light or flash.

Really the only one to have is an Infrared/caramel convertible. A car to keep or resale well. And a real beauty going down the road. Exceptional amongst even the big hitters.

What color or colors do you guys think show off the lines of the LC500 best?

I'm thinking Atomic Silver.

Flare Yellow will attract a lot of attention and like most yellow cars...magnets to bugs and dust. I personally like how the Flare Yellow and carbon fiber parts compliment each other.
