The F grill looks SOOOOOOOOO much better than the 350 with all that chrome surrounding it...not a fan of all that chrome...

But I am a fan of the orange when it's not in a photo that makes it look salmon.

Currently, I like the RCF in this order:

Blue - Red - Orange - Black - White (although I really like ALL of them)

Blue and black sell well.

I understand the Rioja Red interior is also going to be popular based on some of the pre-orders for the RC 350s. I am the only RCF order at this time in my neck of the woods, and I am going with Extreme Blue Metallic/carbon package and the grey highlighted interior.

Just shared by Lexus.

Further confirms my belief that white is shaping up to be the best color for the RC-F. The nose bulge looks less pronounced and it hides it very well.

Although USB 2.0 was my initial choice, I opted out of it. As of yesterday, only eight RC-F's have been ordered @ Westside Lexus Houston. None are USB! lol

gotta go with red interior for this car, black looks so bland to me now after having red interior. Gray interior just reminds me of gray hair

Nguyen - how has your red interior held out over time? Still pleased with the look? Does it show well? You would choose it again?

had the car for 8 months 5300 miles, nuluxe still looks new. By now real leather wouldve wrinkled. The injection molded seats are a huge step up from last gen so much more comfortable

So far, of the actual shots of this car, Obsidian still looks the best, in my opinion of course.
I feel you, but I bet the Orange will be a best seller... Especially in states with warmer climates.

I'm guessing it looks more like the one on the right…

We are very happy to have any and all pictures posted to this forum. Not everyone is an expert in photography. There is always the opportunity to go see the car in person when available if there are doubts about the color.

I like it in white or orange. A few more years, this may be alongside my ISF.

Have to agree with others. That orange is not pleasant at all!
