I got the Nebula Pearl which was a change for me as I always get F-Sport White but I'm very happy with the new color. I saw it the other day at the dealership but have you seen the Nightfall Mica in the sun? Looks very nice but like black it'll be a chore to keep it looking clean. Also the Autumn Shimmer is great and you hardly ever see one in that color.

I have the Atomic Silver and am very happy with it. I agree with other posters that there is a bronze or gold tinge in certain lighting (bright lighting). I love that about it. It’s unique.

I also have Atomic Siilver. During bright sunlight, it looks silver. During dawn, sunset, mercury vapor lights, it gets a bronze/beige tint. The curves of the car makes for some interesting color changes between light and dark silver.

I've seen the green tint on cloudy days, but more of a tan color on sunny days. I had a silver IS250 for almost 8 years, and liked how the silver color hid dirt so well. After 15 years of black cars, I was ready for something requiring a little (lot) less maintenance. So Silver Lining was my choice.

So what color did the OP finally choose?
When were making our final decision the person we were working with had both an F-Sport atomic silver/red interior and a 450h lux eminent white/noble brown side-by-side. The atomic silver and red interior is a great combination. My wife drove both and I left the final decision on which one to purchase up to her. She chose the eminent white (surprising as she loves red interiors). One thing I did notice is that the atomic silver was hot to the touch (the sky was clear with the the sun in full force) and the eminent white cool to the touch. I wasn't in favor for the noble brown interior when we first purchased it, but now I truly like it a lot.

Agree. In general, whenever you start looking for a specific model in dealer inventories, there always seems to be a lot of Atomic Silver ones. This goes for the NX as well. Silver Lining is generally more challenging to find.

We had the dealer place the white and atomic silver side by side on the lot before we decided on white. Tough choice.

I ended up with the Atomic Silver by default, it was not the color I would have chosen. However now I love it for one simple reason, it just doesn't show dirt. The only reason I ever get it washed is because my dog and I dirty up the inside especially the mats. Yeah, I know, I'm lazy.
