IMO you should buy the color that you like. You've seen both and your heart tells you black. The choice is obvious! Lol. I'd get black and invest couple hundreds into OC 2 coating. Look into no rinse wash and wax too. It really cut down the time and effort. IMO you shouldnt send your car through grinder whether or not it's black. Congrats, enjoy and post a pic when you pick yours.
I have the grey F Sport but my first choice was white or black. Great deal on the grey as it was on the lot. However, I notice a lot of people checking my car out during the evening hours. The Nebula Grey is a better looking color at night. Also, people think the stock rims were matched to the cars paint.
You really can't go wrong. Black is so deep on the Lexus, the rear tail lights will pop more.
See if the can park them side by side for you outside. That might help you better decide. Best of luck!

Wow this is going to be such a hard decision when the time comes.
You know I was really interested in the Ultra White but unfortunately they did not have any at the dealer. They have 1 Nebula Grey and 2 Blacks with Cabernet interior. I dont want to ask too much of them to find me an Ultra White just to see because I think they have about had it with me after the negotiation process was done. I am getting an awesomely ridiculous deal and I dont want to push them any further lol

Black isn't really a color anyways, its a second job

Ask youself another question then ... is your car usually clean or dirty?
My last car was grey and I took care of it as if it were black so the maintenanace to me is the same regardless of color. So this time around I said to myself I may as well get the black..

You know the thing is that I love my cars and I love taking care of them. I used to be so **** about keeping my cars clean. However, for the past year since I have started law school, its been so difficult finding the time to be so meticulous with my cars. That's my only real problem. I would hate to neglect a color that requires a good amount of attention. It would be a shame!

I have the Ultra White and it is gorgeous! It is a metallic paint and looks very similar to the Starfire Pearl minus the "Pearl". It is a pure sparkly white.
I have the Flaxin interior which, to me, is a more luxury look. The Cabernet or Black would give it a more sporty look.

If the constant maintenance on cleaning is not an issue for you, Black is a classic choice. Just hard to maintain since you will see everything after washing it.

Well i finally decided to go with the Nebula Grey with Cabernet interior. I went and signed the contract today but did not take delivery of the car because I still have not received 100% certification from my insurance that my car is totalled. I dont know why they are lagging it so much since the insurance adjuster said he will be totaling the car out. I will post pics as soon as i take delivery of the vehicle. I had to sign the contract though in order to make sure the car I wanted was saved for me and to make sure I locked in the price I had negotiated because it was that good of a deal. I did not want anything to end up changing the terms of the negotiated price because I waited another few days to take delivery.
Here is the deal we worked out:
Vehicle MSRP was high $58k range
$495 / month tax included
$500 out of pocket
24 month lease with option to extend
10k miles a year

Don't let other folks run your life. Get what you want and move to another state! (Just kidding. I'd get what you wanted in spite of what you may perceive others opinions to be.)
