Infrared Paint - Wow!

You are correct. I've had it since November, and it is clearly the aspect of the car that gets the most unsolicited, and always favorable, comments. It's a spectacular paint job, especially for those of us who want to move away from the greys and the silvers.

I know it's sort of the different end of the spectrum, but curious how you and other RC owners feel about the Ultrasonic Blue in comparison. I've owned a lot of red cars in my life, and I am debating between the Infrared and USB, with a preference towards the USB since my wife had that color on her IS 250C and it looked gorgeous on that car.

I have not seen the new Blue, but it's not the same as previous versions of the bright Lexus blue. The new color is a $595.00 option due to the fact that, like the Infrared, the car is painted with a metallic silver first, then a translucent red or blue; the silver acts like a mirror. I have one in red and it's fantastic. I still have not seen one in the blue, but it's looks to be pretty bright. If you are not paying extra for this option, you are getting the old, plain, blue color. As far as I know, the red and blue are only available on the RC, but I might be wrong; the blue might also be available on the NX.
