Default F-Sport in Atomic Silver or Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0

Planning on ordering the new 2022 NX350 F-Sport but can't decide between two amazing colors, Atomic Silver and Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0. Also will be getting PPF on the front so will that alter the appearance of either color.

USBM 2.0 hands down. This isn't even a question whatsoever.

I've owned USBM on a CT200H F Sport and it's my most missed paint color.

Will always vote for a color that is easier to keep clean which is atomic silver.

When I was buying my 21 ES, I had a Atomic parked next to my Nebula. I was deciding. I loved both. I loved the atomic.. but the reason why I liked it was because it was in the sun and it shimmered and the paint looked dynamic. It glowed and looked stunning.

however at night, evening, dusk, or in the shade, it looks like another "beige" Ford Taurus. So that's why I decided against it. In anything but bright shimmering sun, it's just another beige car.

And if I had any color that appeared "plain," beige would be the last plain color I would like. I recognize most colors can look "plain" in the shade or without direct sunlight.

otherwise yes Atomic is very nice but in many scenarios it may appear just to be beige. You may want to consider that!

Completely agree. I too was torn between atomic and nebula when I bought my RXh. Seeing it being kind of beige in the shadow kind of turned me off. I went with nebula. Every time I see an atomic RX on the road under the sun, I regret not going for it.

I just put a deposit down on a 2022 NX450H+. Being that nebula is no longer available, my first choice on my order is atomic, second is cloudburst which is quite a bit darker than nebula. My absolute favorite gray is the turbulence gray on the Toyota Supra. I will pay good money to have that color on the NX.
