In line with what you're saying, I've started to notice my USB IS has more noticeable swirl/fine scratches than my Nebula Gray RX which has double the mileage of the IS. Personally, it doesn't bother me since I'm thankfully not OCD with this which is why Obsidian works for me.

The Darth Vader front-end, with the triple L LEDs, fogs, spindle grill chrome, and silver lip spoiler popping... was what won us over. Close runner up was Eminent White / Rioja Red. Despite the "pain-in-the-rear" black will be to maintain, every time I see Hoovey's signature IS pic, I feel passionate for the color as nothing beats black with some chrome accents on the car. To me, on the NX F-Sport, this is the true combination of Luxury, Sport, and "Commanding Road Presence".


We're excited to say the least, especially to experience the new color HUD and latest gen AVS... I believe the NX will handle as good as the Germans with AVS if the IS and GS are any indicators.

...now for the 4 month wait

Thanks for the explanation and great choice. If I jump to the Crafted by Lexus LS I also might go back to black. The Black/red combo is just badass and I'm not huge on the black accents they have on the white car.
