Default Does anyone actually own a saddle interior GS?

I know the sport design is rare and the saddle interior even more so, but where the heck are they all?

I'm in San Francisco and I have never seen one.

Where did they all go?

Default Saddle interior

I live in Dallas and see them occasionally. Saw a Sport Design White with Saddle interior and left on note on the guy's car saying asking if was for sale. Yes in fact he was looking to trade it in on a Mercedes. We went back and forth and lost contact when I lost my phone....too bad!

There's one for sale I noticed on auto trader, it was around 6-7k. They are fairly rare, I recently saw a saddle 04-06 LS430 for sale, that looked really cool

Man that is too bad. I like the note move though. If it were black or dark grey, I would've had to do the same!

Just went through evey 01 to 05 (I think sport design started in 01 :/). Couldn't find one. Might have missed it. Throw up a link if you come across it again please.

I've seen one or two others looking in other major cities Craigslist, they're all 03s I believe that's the only year they had them. Does anyone know the taillights in the link I posted? Those look really nice
