It's a matter of taste and opinion. I don't care for white cars. Same goes for electronics like phones, laptops, etc. Too basic IMO.

I am into Metallics: silver, light-dark gray tones.

Starfire Pearl with hints of purple is just too princess-feminine. Not for me.

I agree, Eminent white is the best colour they carry. Too bad it's not available on F sport

If you it next to ultra white on an fsport side by side, you'd pick ultra white I bet. Pearl is just not sporty.

Why does this keep coming up when there is little doubt that the Caviar is the best color.

Default Silver Lining All Day

I'm loving my new RX450H F Sport in Silver Lining and Stratus Gray Leather...

Sales Manager received 8 calls from area dealers once they got a whiff that my special order had arrive within 2 days trying to ****** it up! He said, I had a winner.

That looks really sharp. SLM and Nebula Gray are tops on my list as best colors for the F Sport. Nightfall Mica and Caviar nice too. White though not for me.

Ultra White and Obsidian Black are simply timeless. Although black is harder to keep clean it's super sharp. White is great but too bold for me. Really all the F Sport colour choices are great.

I do like the look of the white as well. Anyone seen both these colors in person?
I like both of the colors you mention, however, I bought the Automic Silver w/ Rioja Red Leather w/black & silver trim.

I find the F sport front grill to be quite obnoxious. It is what I dislike most about the entire Lexus line. Consequently I chose Obsidian Black for my NX to tone down the front end.

Hopefully we only need to deal with that grill design for a couple more years. It reminds me of Audi's old grill style which was the size of a flat screen TV.

I LOVE the grill. At first I didn't. I love how unique it looks and how it's super edgy and different. My tastes have changed.

I felt the same way but it grew on me for the first year until I got a 2016 back in August.

Best colors:
1. Nightfall
2. SLM
3. Caviar

ultra white...lexus' closest to pure white, but it still ha some character up close with the unique metal flakes. the pearl ones seem popular with older folks.
