went to the dealership today and they had the Silver, Red, Raven and Asphalt. Which will look best with matte black wheels like the Valencia Matte Black ?

Asphalt will look good with that wheel
I was in the same boat when I was buying my car. Had Raven on order but looked at pictures online, the metallic in the Asphalt is really nice in person. |

I just got a whiteout FR-S and am beyond pleased with it.
It is the same pearlescent white Lexus uses on their vehicles. How do I know for sure? Because we bought a pearl white RX 350 3 weeks ago for my wife and before we left the dealer we got them to confirm it is the same color. B E A utiful!! But the dealer did say it is by far the most difficult color to match. Last edited by tennisfreak; 04-01-2013 at 02:46 PM. |

If there is a whiteout FRS, then I would really be thinking hard between it and the Asphalt. That black TSW wheel would look amazing with whiteout IMHO.
OTOH, who makes better wheels? TSW or Tenzo R ? I guess they are both kind of equal but whose product would you prefer between the two? |

Raven.
It is beyond beautiful when it is cleaned correctly. Everyone complaining about a black car are the ones too lazy to wash a car properly. The flake in the paint give is surreal depth when the paint is claybarred, corrected, sealed, and a nice coat of wax is applied. It looks like a black hole drving down the street. You feel like you should be sucked into the thing when it is sitting there.

Get either one and get it professionally polished then the paint sealed with opticoated or Cquarted and you will be fine with no scratches and it will be easy to take care of. Just never use an automated car wash.
Cquarts works better on black. Opticoat will probably work better on asphalt. But ask your detailer which would be better. If he is a good detailer he or she will know. |

Maybe its because my dad drives a dark grey car, but I think that color is more for older people. No offense intended
