Not surprisingly, owners tend to love the color of their own Lexus RC F the most, but every option has some fans.
The Lexus RC F is one of the luxury brand’s great performance models and in fine sports car fashion, the V8-powered coupe is offered in an assortment of eye-catching colors. At the same time, those buyers who like a milder color can also pick with the popular mainstays of silver, black and white. To find out which colors owners liked the most, “RCFGrandpa” posted a thread in the RC F section asking the members which available exterior color was their favorite.
The Introduction
When the OP first posted this thread to the forum, he included the image above of the Lexus RC F in the colors offered for the 2015 model year.
I know every owner is going to say that the color of their RCF is their favorite color. I know that my favorite RCF color is Molten Pearl (orange). What is yours?
As you can see in the image above, the graphic includes Infrared, Liquid Platinum Silver, Molten Pearl, Obsidian Black, Ultra White and Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0, while Nebula Gray Pearl is not shown. Of course, Caviar Black, Flare Yellow, Sonic Titanium Silver, Atomic Silver and Matte Nebula Gray have been introduced since this graphic was created, but the original colors prove to be the most popular.
The Community Responds
The first person to reply was “LXSDO”, who shared a picture of his Infrared RC F while stating that he also likes the look of Nebula Gray.
That vote for the deep metallic red was backed up by “asinow”, who also shared his Infrared Lexus coupe.
At the same time “CAHWY128”, and “myidsucks” spoke up for black cars, sharing pictures of their cars.
While fans of the other end of the spectrum entered their votes, and their pictures, for white cars. “1herm4” and “JT2MA71” both shared shots of their Lexus coupes, but several other members who spoke up without sharing pictures showed favor for white.
Nebula Gray and Molten Pearl each got a little love as well, including the stunning orange RC F owned by the OP, but the most popular color in the discussion proves to be Ultrasonic Blue Mica. “RCFCoop”, forum sponsor “Eric@BDWheels” and “johnnyreb” all shared pictures of their cars, but “USB” was mentioned by several other members who participated in the thread.

"Before I was old enough to walk, my dad was taking me to various types of racing events, from local drag racing to the Daytona 500," says Patrick Rall, a lifetime automotive expert, diehard Dodge fan, and respected auto journalist for over 10 years. "He owned a repair shop and had a variety of performance cars when I was young, but by the time I was 16, he was ready to build me my first drag car – a 1983 Dodge Mirada that ran low 12s. I spent 10 years traveling around the country, racing with my dad by my side. While we live in different areas of the country, my dad still drag races at 80 years old in the car that he built when I was 16 while I race other vehicles, including my 2017 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and my 1972 Dodge Demon 340.
"Although I went to college for accounting, my time in my dad’s shop growing up allowed me the knowledge to spend time working as a mechanic before getting my accounting degree, at which point I worked in the office of a dealership group. While I was working in the accounting world, I continued racing and taking pictures of cars at the track. Over time, I began showing off those pictures online and that led to my writing.
"Ten years ago, I left the accounting world to become a full-time automotive writer and I am living proof that if you love what you do, you will never “work” a day in your life," adds Rall, who has clocked in time as an auto mechanic, longtime drag racer and now automotive journalist who contributes to nearly a dozen popular auto websites dedicated to fellow enthusiasts.
"I love covering the automotive industry and everything involved with the job. I was fortunate to turn my love of the automotive world into a hobby that led to an exciting career, with my past of working as a mechanic and as an accountant in the automotive world provides me with a unique perspective of the industry.
"My experience drag racing for more than 20 years coupled with a newfound interest in road racing over the past decade allows me to push performance cars to their limit, while my role as a horse stable manager gives me vast experience towing and hauling with all of the newest trucks on the market today.
