Default NX F-Sport Color Opinion

I'm all in on leasing a 2019 F-Sport, but curious what color everyone recommends? It appears that there are a lot of black with black interior. I also like the white and the atomic silver. Does anyone have a recommendation or opinion on what looks best in the F-Sport trim? Thanks!

I prefer the Atomic Silver or Nebula Grey. I bought a Nebula Grey with red seats.

Black exterior, red interior by far.

Is the black super tough to keep clean?

I think any color looks good on the NX F-Sport, but depends on what YOU like. I have two NX F-Sports, a 2017 Ultrasonic Blue and a 2019 Atomic Silver. The Atomic Silver is very low maintenance and really shows off the shapes in the body but I like the looks of the USB even though it's much more difficult to keep clean.

As you are leasing an F-Sport, go with Atomic Silver...the F-Sport wheels really makes the color pop-out, and Atomic Silver doesn't show the winter grime, spring pollen, summer dust, and autumn droppings like the darker colors.

Is this a serious question...lol

All jokes aside black is such a PITA to keep clean. Annoyingly so. My wife had a black clk. I vowed never again to own another black car. I love detailing cars and enjoy the time washing/polishing..etc. After we got rid of the clk to get another merc I choose silver. That was nice. All my other vehicles are white. I love white cars. My wife pulls in the driveway last year in her new black NX.... I felt a dark cloud just come over me.

No matter how many times I wash/clean...etc. The very next day the car is either dusty/has pollen, or looks dirty.

TLDR: Get black if you want to wash the car one day and have it look nice, then the very next day it will look dirty. Repeat process for as long as you own it. Then never own a black car again...lol

Agreed. Buy whatever color YOU like, just not black.

Black.. Everyone likes black. It's the frequent cleaning that is the issue. If you close to the dealership you leasing from you get free washes there anyway. Otherwise just get a monthly express wash pass from any car wash franchise. near me in IL most monthly unlimited wash passes are like $25 per month..

Like mentioned before, I like the Atomic Silver as it is very very very (!!) low maintenance
Got mine in circuit red interior

Nice grille install. I feel the best upgrade to keep the car cosmetically "fresh" for today is a set of modern wheels on it. Those 5-spokes looked dated the minute the model came out. Just my 2c.

I still have my 2016 NX Fsport atomic silver. Waiting my 2020 NX300h eminent white pearl ordered from Japan (no date/time ETA yet).

Aside from black Which one is easier to maintain/clean... atomic silver or eminent white pearl?

I have a NX in atomic silver (as seen in a post above) and the wife has a pearl white Murano... Guess who clean them both I have to say the atomic silver is waaayyy less maintenance! Had a black Edge before the NX and must say that white is not as bad as black to maintain for sure but silver is my preferred one for maintenance/cleaning
