Grey Interior
So who else has the grey Interior and do you find it tricky to keep clean?
I really wanted the black, but with the constant heat and humidity black was just out of the question. I got the grey.. IMO it makes the inside of the car look clean.. however, this grey (I know its not actually grey) is so light it almost appears white.
Anyone afraid of stains or smudging? Or has anyone got a stain or smudge in their car that.. won't fully come out? (I don't just curious.. because I bet it is CRAZY annoying.)
AND I wish they would have made the headliner black, I am afraid to roll down my windows for fear of making the fabric dirty. Damn all the hurricane debri in the air still!

I had the same fears, but it held up pretty well, My drivers seat shows
some dirt trapped in the cracks, but I did'nt try to clean it yet and I've had the car for almost a year now..

To me the looks outweighed the potential problems associated with having a "light" color. I love the contrasting gray/charcoal interior. Harder to keep clean? A bit perhaps, but I'm finding it not too hard as I just keep "on top of it" as I do with the exterior.

No problems on mine either and I've got 13k miles on it. The only caveat is the lower door plastic, I tend to scuff it with my shoe getting in/out of the car. I've never really tried to clean it though, so I don't know if it comes out.

i use lexus leather cleaner and conditioner every month or so. actually, my friend does it for me =) but anyway, you can kinda see the dirt when it starts, but i clean my car at least once a week so i don't give dirt a chance to show up.

The sterling interior is awesome. A lite cleaning periodically will keep it in fine shape.
In my opinion, it is the best looking interior. The contrast with the black on the dash and console is gorgeous.

Black isn't always hotter. Living in Texas I have had a black car my whole life. During the summer when it's 105 outside, every car interior gets hot. My black leather gets incredibly hot to the touch, but SO does the light gray leather in my mom's White RX 330. Any car is going to get hot if the sun is beating down on it.

dealer ordered my car with the wrong interior, should have been blk I got grey. at first i was p!ssed but quickly got use to it. now that i've had her for a few months i really like it. saw my exact car with blk at Taste of Lexus and didn't like it nearly as much as the grey. has held up fine no complaints.
