If anyone has a reliable website for tracking a car build / shipping with the VIN, please do let me know! Trying to figure out where mine is in the process as it was originally expected by end of month but mum is the word from my SA.

When I was Searching for Mine I wanted Cloudburst Grey But Found this Atomic Silver one getting delivered in 3 Weeks So I decided on this one without even seeing it. When I got to the dealer My Jaw Dropped at how beautiful this Silver is. I Love it More everytime that I wash it The White would look amazing in FSport Edition with all The Black

Atomic Silver has a more sophisticated paint process. In that regard, it’s more premium than white :

Funny it was my wife's car as I drive two Red Supra, she sometimes drive my 2020 Supra. We had recently turned in her lease on a Mercedes and she was a Mercedes user for nearly 15 years and I convinced her to join the darkside get her first Lexus a 450+ NX and when it came to color she didn't really care as both cars were red on the inside. And we were picking between Atomic Silver and SuperSonic Mica 2.0. Guess what we ended up getting lol...

Cool Atomic Silver is great

Atomic Silver is great. Some of the older silver Lexus look so plain though.

Good luck

YMMV,

Anyone know what's special about the Eminent White Pearl and Cloudburst Grey paint that Lexus feels they should charge an additional $500 (Cdn)?

Well, it's not for me to comment regarding relative value, but we just picked up an Eminent White Pearl 350 Luxury, and it's a very deep white, with crystalline flourishes depending on the light. So, despite all the hoo-hah over Atomic Sliver...I'm here to speak on behalf of Eminent White. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

I have to agree. I really like the Eminent White Pearl. I've had mine for 6 weeks.

I don’t understand what happen to my post but I meant to post it to this thread. lol

I noticed that for 2024 NX that there is a premium paint fee of $500.00 for the Ultra White, however the Atomic Silver there is no extra charge.

I’m confused because I always thought the Atomic Silver was the more premium paint color (I heard there are more layers to the paint)
Can anyone tell me why this would be? What makes the Ultra White cost $500.00 more?

I had my heart set on the Atomic Silver but sometimes it gives off a brownish tint which I’m not crazy about.
I’ve never had a white vehicle but I really like how the white looks against the black accents and wheels.

It does not matter what color we choose.... After we buy we think we should have bought the other. I do it all the time. We bought the Emi but I secretly love the Cloud w/roj. O need help. Seriously they all look good.
