Color Decision: Atomic Silver, Nebula Gray Pearl or Silver Lining Metallic?

I have a nebula grey and love it. After a fresh wash and nice shiny wheels it's defin a head turner.
Atomic silver is a great color choice if you're on the 40+ side. It's a super nice and mature color and it's not a car color you see everyday on an F sport.

You're right, I don't know my colors very well. In certain lighting, to me, it has a hint of brown which takes away from the silver with black interior. I originally wanted the SLM or the Nebula Gray Pearl. I'm happy enough with the AT and more importantly my car after 5000 miles has no problems.

Saw your post on the de-chrome. Your nebula gray looks so clean with those black accents and f sport rims!

Strangely in my case (mind you I own the IS), my color selection began from the interior, I desperately wanted the 'flaxen' (brown) interior, that
very much limited my exterior color selection, after process of elimination I ended up with atomic silver, but I am quite happy with it. But I admit
color selection is limited.

The first few days I got it, I kept missing it in the parking lot since it looked very bronze in the evening light.

I would say it's a great color choice for anyone wanting something different, and low maintenance in terms of not having to keep it clean all the time to look good.

On my second Nebula grey. Like the fact it doesn't look to bad when dirty. Shines up nice and gives a good reflection. Have tinted windows to match factory (close to). I also like how it blends the plastic wheel well sides (whatever their called) into the car. Like how the color matches the F sport wheels.
I am leaning towards Atomic Silver for the next one, only because 3 Nebula Grey in a row would just seem strange.

My RX was Nebula and my GS is Atomic. Both colors are fantastic. The Nebula hid dirt well and was easy to maintain. The Atomic Silver is my favorite, and also hides dirt and is easy to maintain. You can't go wrong with either color in an RX.

I have the atomic silver with black interior. I've loved that color since I saw it on the NX 2 years ago It has more of a "pewter" look at night. Hints of gold or bronze during the day.

In September, bought a 2017 silver lining ES300h. Really wanted atomic silver but it was the end of the year with the 2018's on the way and no one had an atomic silver. I had a white 2013 ES300h so did not want white again but love the color. I only get light color cars because I am meticulous about a clean car. The silver lining, white and betting atomic silver can drive through multiple raining days and still looks clean. I keep an excellent wax on it that sheets the water and dirt off. We had snow and they sanded the roads and it did get dirty. The atomic silver's charm is its uniqueness, hard to describe the color to someone.
