Default Opinion wanted....

While ultimately it will be my choice....Please give me your opinion on which is a better color for a 450h F sport. I have 3 days to lock it in.

Nightfall mica or silver lining.
Interior is rioja red.

Thanks for the advice.

IMO the Nightfall Mica and Rioja red combo is definitely unique and I think it looks nice. Silver lining will definitely be easier to keep clean and show less scratches. The silver lining would look good with the Rioja red, but not as special as with the nightfall mica.

The Silver Lining seems to be the color that Lexus thinks looks best on the regular RX350 because that is what most of the gallery on their website shows. For the F-sport, it seems Lexus thinks Ultra White. On the RX450h, it seems Lexus thinks Nightfall Mica.

I struggle with either exterior color with Rioja Red. I personally think Black or maybe white exterior with Rioja Red interior would look better but these are my personal preferences. That's really what it comes down to.

I like both, but I think the Red interior will look better with Silver..

Living in North Dakota , I would have to assume washing your vehicle Dec-Feb is very challenging. Could not imagine how dirty a dark color would get. Silver is one of the best colors for not showing dirt.

Lol. Actually November to April is more usual.

Yes, that is why I'm thinking silver.

Btw, how did you know I'm in ND?
