Finally some interesting and gorgeous interior seat options for Lexus. I've always looked at the red and tobacco seats over at BMW lustfully.

That is absolutely incredible. Various interior colors, choice of headliner material. Very nice. The wood trim even has optional inlays. Something thats more common on Rolls-Royces.

Well its easier to sell and produce there. The plants are right there in Japan. Its easier to customize there and sell there.

Lets hope it does eventually come here.

& actually offering a discount like the Germans for European Delivery ? I think it's highly unlikely ... although I would probably do it as long as they don't charge extra ...
