Attached are some pics of my atomic silver IS350 AWD F-sport with red interior. The pics don't do justice to the exterior color when you look at the car in person! It's beautiful.

That's nice. It's interesting how this color looks different depending on lighting. Sometimes it looks like it has a gold tint to it and other times it looks like Titanium. I like that it's darker than regular silver. I got this color because I'm just not a fan of Nebula Grey. Smokey Granite Mica was a much nicer dark grey and they should not have gotten rid of it. Nebula Grey just doesn't pop and looks rather muted and flat in person IMHO.

Totally agree with you. Nebula grey looks great in official pics but in candids and in person it looks extremely flat. Atomic silver has so much depth to it. IMO its the best color for the IS right now. Hope to get my IS Coupe/RC in that color next year. Hope they start offering it in the F sport by then too.

chowner, I figured your IS is AWD with F Sport Executive package since you have the ML inside the car. I wonder does your car comes with power tilt and telescoping steering wheel? The Canadian IS brochure seems to suggest a "no" and I haven't seen a F Sport with your package to verify it. There are many misinformation in the brochure and it is difficult to see it as a reliable source of information.

Thanks.

Yes I have the AWD with F Sport executive. And it does NOT have the power tilt & telescoping steering wheel.

Thanks chowner. Your car in atomic silver does look great. The power tilt and telescoping is meaningful when the seats have memory. In the end it is not difficult to adjust the steering wheel quickly.

Atomic Silver and Flaxen are a great combo!

Atomic Silver IS250
I have the atomic silver with grey/black interior. I wanted the flaxen but this was the only one the dealership had. Paid 42K with BSM, 18"whls, Nav Package, 1 year enform w/live traffic updates, Prem Package, LED's and heated seats. The wheels sold me.

I think I have the answer for your question. Here is my atomic silver on red 350 F sport.

So, the short answer is "it looks amazing in the sun".

atomic silver is going to be available for RC F sport, so you can probably expect the same for 2015 IS
