Default Atomic Silver or Ultra White

I was set on the white then I saw the Atomic Silver. Now I'm stuck between the two. Which color do you guys and girls think looks better on the RC 350 F sport?

+1. I had the same dilemma and went for white on red. I haven't actually received the car yet (that should happen 10 April) but I am more certain than ever that I have made the right decision. The white paint used by Lexus in the RC is absolutely stunning. It's no ordinary white.

The atomic Silver has the red interior as well. That's a must! I'm leaning towards the Ultra White

I guess I'll be the minority. Saw a Atomic Silver F-sport on the road today and it looked great. The red interior would definitely be a good combo with it. Ultra White Lexus are becoming a common sight here.

I was gonna go with White/red but then knowing that so many people got it in SoCal, I went with silver/red

^^^ If Liquid Platinum was available on the F Sport in Canada, it would be my pick at this time among the light colors. Between, AS and UW, my pick would be AS just because white is common in my neighborhood and I like to be different

Sorry about the bird poop!

How about Ultrasonic Blue Mica VS Ultra White?

I was set on Ultra White color untill I saw Ultrasonic Blue Mica in person. It was stunning with the dark accent. ( grill, rims, etc)

You and I are both in the minority because I think Atomic Silver is the best color Lexus makes. I snap my neck everytime I see an IS in Atomic Silver. I saw an RC in Nebula Grey on a trip to Atlanta last week, but I've yet to see one in any color in Dallas. Anyway, Atomic Silver/Rioja Red would be hot.

I've have had and see so many silver cars, I think they're monotonous. That said, with the RC, the silver is actually quite stunning. I agree with others that the red interior is a must. White or silver exteriors are a win, just don't get silver with black interior unless you want to be totally nondescript, and fade into the background.

Silver/Black here, and oddly enough I don't typically fade into the background.

Ultra Sonic Blue is very nice! It's just a little to bright for me but looks good on the RC

I liked the Blue Mica RC when I saw it in the showroom, but I think it will lose its wow factor quickly. I think resale will be an issue with the blue, red and orange cars.
