It was really a tough decision. The flint mica is very cool looking--unusual color--and of course black (when new and clean!) is great. Decided on the white mostly so that I can go longer without washing it. :) Anyway, can't wait for it to arrive.

OK...The bulllet has been bit. The new RX350--Crystal White Pearl with black interior has been ordered and in a week I'll be cruising in it!

Thanks for the response. The choices in Canada for the Crystal White are black and ivory only, no grey. Since there is so much black on the dashboard already, I thought black might look better than ivory. I'm leaning more and more to the white since it looks "cleaner" but this will be my 5th white car in a row!! (creature of habit I guess)

Well, we have just initiated the purchase of the RX350 and now I need to decide on color! I know I want black leather interior but am having a hard time deciding which exterior color would be best with black interior. It's hard to pick based on the little color samples in the brochure and our dealer only has silver in stock (I know I definitely want either Flint Mica, Black or Crystal White Pearl). Can anyone explain what the Flint Mica looks like "in person" (is it really a dark grey?). Also, any thoughts on whether black interior and Crystal White Pearl exterior would be too much of a contrast? I am afraid the black will always look dirty, especially with salt from the roads during the winters. I know color is a personal choice but does anyone have any feedback on this DILEMMA?
