Default Daybreak Yellow CT200h - Who has one!

Hi All,

I was one of the very first to get the CT200h, pre-tsunami, and have a 2011 Fire Agate (was the one that sat on the spinning podiums at a few car shows!). Love the color, especially with tinted windows all around!

Although fire agate was HARD to find prior, it seems like supply is increasing...however, Daybreak Yellow was only made for the first year?

For anyone who has one, please post some photos!

Does anyone have official figures from Lexus as to how many Daybreak Yellows were actually produced? These are SUPER RARE!!

Default Daybreak Yellow Mica

Not my CT, but I saw this one parked. The color was so unusual that I stopped to take this iPhone picture.

Didn't even know this color was an option, not a fan of the pearly taxi cab, though. It sure beats that weird Brown Spice Mica and it's cool that Lexus took a small risk with flashy colors.

It's a Love / Hate color, my wife hates, I love so guess what, we didn't buy it...haha

I saw one in Norcal and admit it's very eye-catching

Yeah, I get it. There's some colors that are just like that. I'd like to see one in person, might change my thoughts on it.

I wished the Daybreak Yellow was available when I was shopping for a CT in 2012. Apparently only in 2011 (what the sales guys said). It would look nice with a caramel interior, imo.

We have a 2012 daybreak yellow mica w/ black interior CT200h for sale at the Orlando dealer (where I work). It's nicely equipped with navigation and luxury package (includes memory seats and auto rain-sensing wipers).

I believe Lexus only had this color for two years? 2011-2012 models?

One of the rarest colors for the CT I bet. Ultrasonic blue mica is up there too :-)

To say I don't like yellow however is silly because we own plenty of yellow cars

s2000 is Rio Yellow
M3 is Dakar Yellow (BMW Individual colors)
