I vote for silver/red. Although white is a "classic" color, for some reason it always looked a bit too bland on the LX

I didn't like the silver on previous LX, but the atomic silver flow well on the new design LX, for some reason the new LX look weak on white, but it is hard to get the silver with red now

I totally agree. I was thinking about getting silver on my previous LX but instead went with nebula, as silver looked very generic, and most dealers wouldn't even carry it. White was the most popular choice. I think more angular lines and aggressive looks of the new model don't go all to well with the classic white. I did look @ a 2016 silver/cabernet but the dealer just wouldn't move on the price, and the car was sold literally within hours.

I have seen the car in Silver, Nebula, White, Blue and Black. To me it looks the best in Silver followed by Black. I want the Silver/Red but have not found a dealer that will deal on that combo. Two dealers have offered me invoice on White/Parchment but I am not interested in that combo. I guess Ill wait it out for now until more silver/red vehicles are on dealer lots.

I haven't see the silver with red combo yet, but the silver and black look steath on this new design, my dealer agree to take $6500 off on 97k, i think it is a good deal for now, my favorite color is white but man this truck look awesome on silver or black color, that is why I can't decide on the color

Awesome in black indeed, yet high maintenance, as expected. Mine is black /parchment but I would've slightly preferred black/cabernet, but there wasn't anything around and no deals to be had on one if brought in from somewhere else. not a big deal other than cleaning dye transfer from jeans

Silver; it will not show the dirt as bad as the white will! Silver will look nicer longer after you wash it.
