Many times dealers other then Lexus don't know the color names. Interior is either the light gray or parchment color.

I think the reason his interior looks greenish is due to the photo. His camera's white balance setting just didn't expose the picture correctly. That interior is black.

Yeah, it's just a camera setting/lighting issue. To my knowledge Lexus never offered a color called black velvet (sounds like a cake). The OP must have the name wrong or given the car a nickname.
