That's kind of what I felt when I saw it. Felt classy. I ruled out the red. Too much attraction for a GT. Maybe for an F-version with vents, spoiler, etc.

I'm leaning towards the atomic silver over smoky granite.

Thanks everyone! Now if only Lexus would fix their infotainment system...

The ES is going to be fitted with Apple Carplay. I'm very disappointed that the 6 month(?) earlier release of their flagship LS does not that this very crucial update.
Maybe all of their 2019 model will be fitted with Apple Carplay.

Yes, I'm interested to see what the 2019 models will bring even though I haven't received my 2018 yet- 3 weeks and counting.

I have no idea. I just hope all their '19 line up will come with Apple Carplay like the ES.
I was at the dealership last weekend and I'm thinking if I should take a lease on the LC500 and get it out of my system. I know I probably can't live with a coupe because of the practically. I was really looking for a GSF(to keep) but thinking if I should lease the LC500 and get the fancy GT out of my system while I still can.

Anyone have thoughts on a white/caramel combination? I think the conventional advice is to pair white outside with black inside but my last car had a black interior and I think it's too dark now and want to go in a different direction. I'm also not a fan of the roja red. Is a light paint paired with another light color a bad idea? I want to stick with the lighter exterior paints like white/silver/platinum because I think the dark paints swallow the lines of the car too much.

I drove a BMW that was white with a caramel interior. It was a nice combo. The only thing that ruined it was that BMW decided to put carbon fiber (silver) door pulls in it which looked awful with the caramel. I had them wrapped in black.

HOPPEAN, How did you manage to get the base wheels on your LC? I am in Virginia and every LC that comes in has the Touring Pkg that requires the 20 in Chrome looking wheels. I want the wheels like you have as I like them much better. Thanks.

Just finished a 1000 mile drive in my Atomic Silver with red interior which I personally think is the best color combo. Can't drive it anywhere without people approaching me. The drive was awesome. Most comfortable seats, steering wheel design is great. Has the performance package so love the steering and short turning circle. Stereo great. No tramlining on 21" Bridgestones. Followed a BMW for awhile at triple digit speeds. Can't say enough about the car. Good in the rain also. A great daily driver!

When I ordered my vehicle I requested these as a second set of wheels. They're my winter wheels.

Here is a picture of mine.

Honestly I think SGM is the best exterior color on the car. I tried to like white but the lines are absent when you actually look at the car in person.

Goes in both tones when in the shade and out.

Hi,
Do you have Carbon Fiber trunk spoiler on your LC500?
I'm getting one now with Atomic Silver/Red interior. But would like to get one but not many have the wing on their LC's

How do you like your LC so far?

I have the performance pkg on mine so it has a retractable spoiler which I have locked up. Sent prior pics of carbon mirrors but have not thought much about spoiler. Atomic silver is an unusual hue which looks good dirty even. Gets as much or more attention as my British racing green Jag XKRS
