The Red is a head turner, people wonder what it is as we drive by or they try to play catch up and get a look.

We’ve had an Infrared and I have driven (in an old truck) right beside one in full sun. It’s up there with anybody’s paint I’ve seen in terms of “Pop!”

People of all ages are all into it. But the orange is comparatively invisible. Transparent. A ghost. Especially to reproductive age females it seems.

Sometimes that’s what you want. Bentley are very understated, a lot of people hardly notice you.

Orange like Red is also a Hot color. Most LC colors display some iridescence in nature. The problem I see with Orange is that it looses much of its pizazz under less than favorable lighting conditions. The color shift is too dramatic and it looses much of its heat. That’s not an issue with the other LC colors. Most stay true in gray lighting conditions, and pop in bright sun or under bright night lights. However, Structural Blue is exceptional under all lighting conditions. The paint actually absorbs and reflects all incoming light and glows even under low light conditions. The paint is truly EXCEPTIONAL.

Looks good but I am more of a add not a delete guy I know everyone is different but in my 50 years I still think the factory wheels are awesome. I love the touch of chrome with the black inserts. And they are one of the easiest wheels to clean that I have had.

I am totally with you on the wheels. I like them. Best wheels that I have seen on a Lexus. I am not a big chrome trim fan. Other brands tend to black out the trim on performance oriented cars (Porsche, BMW,…). But, overall, I think Lexus makes it work on the LC. It is one of the most beautiful cars on the road. I am not planning to change much on mine (except those damn run flats).

Hey Rapture ----- Whatever did you do with the Black gloss Five spokes? Those wheels were awesome! I was thinking about swapping out to something like that. Old School Classic with New School Flair.
