Ok, so still haven't heard if they will get the allocation for the Blue/carmel/sand LC. I do have first dibs on the Red/Carmel/Sand showing up next week.
I like the Blue exterior better but since i can't order what i want anymore...I'm not hip on the blue/Carmel as much but I've always liked a maroon/gold and the red/carmel is close to that.
Knowing the interior is Carmel for both....is Red the better exterior (and for sure coming) or the Blue (no word yet).
If there is no word on the Blue by April one I will just HAPPILY take the Red.
But I know me...i can't go look at a dog and NOT adopt him....I can't go look at the Red one and NOT take it...

My brother’s LC500 coupe is infrared and toasted caramel and it looks stunning.

As just about everyone here would agree, both exterior colors are beautiful and I can’t imagine you would be disappointed either way. I have seen the Infrared in person and I find it stunningly beautiful! It is not a bright candy apple red or fire engine red. It is a deeper richer tone of red that looks very sophisticated and yet dramatic simultaneously. It has much character in my opinion.
best wishes,

Well dealer is getting car tomorrow afternoon, earlier than I'm ready for it. Will most likely drive and buy on Wednesday morning.
They are 3hrs from home..its a long story but will ask them to deliver to my home....so add some bucks.

Edit: Happened to think that if you purchase and (buyers-remorse) it isn't working for you and the USB does come through you'll own a premium desirable trade-in ,

And if you are comfortable to do so, share your feelings good or bad, positive or negative if you purchase or walk away.

Worst case basis is I still have a beautiful LC to enjoy and won’t have any regrets with my purchase.
