Default was there a black and blue-ish dash color option?

last week i test drove a 2014 f-sport and the dash (area around the radio and glovebox), door panels, and shift boot weren't exactly black, but more of a black and blue mix. at first, i thought it might have been the window tint messing with the lighting, but that wasn't the case.

found another example on autotrader:






i know lexus offered a couple different leather options, but i don't recall seeing this funky color combo being offered.

Black is the only interior office in terms of the dash. I believe the combination of LED interior lighting and camera settings cause the blue tinge to the leather.

the car i drove for sure had a blue tinge. test drove the car around 1pm on a cloudy day. made sure to roll the windows down, opened the doors, and had two different sales people confirm the odd color. weird that i also found an example on autotrader.

bottom line, it sounds like black is the only option.

Hmm... Could also be the reaction of the product the dealer/owner is using on the dash like armor all or something similar. But yes, as far as the color, I'm pretty sure black is the only color available.
