As far as I know that is not possible. It's a shame too because Lexus has some great looking wood in my opinion. If you were to choose though, I would forgo the wood and get the F-Sport. It's worth it in terms of looks alone.

that's a tough one... i know there's no way you can order it that way, but where there's a will there's a way. ask the parts people at Lexus and see how much the wood trim (each piece) would be. i'm sure you'll change your mind once they tell you the price.

Do you want the looks mainly of the F Sport?

I would get a Luxury model and swap the bumper.

LOL, buying each individual wood piece, including the steering wheel will run him $10,000. Not lying.

Yeah, it would be alot cheaper if you buy a luxury model and get the F-Sport bumper and grille. This would roughly cost you $1,600 + the paint job

So possibly get a Lux package and mod that up to F Sport?

i believe you J... that's why i said once they give him the price, not including the install... he'll definitely change his mind .

I'm sure there will be some company that pops up with wood trim that can fit in our F Sports. I've already seen a company on here that does carbon fiber pieces but they don't do wood. Until then, believe me, the aluminum is not at all hard on the eyes!

Why they opted for aluminum in lieu of wood in the F-Sport has always puzzled me. Aluminum cheapens the interior in my opinion. If you like the aluminum that's fine, but I'd prefer the rich, warm aura of wood. Why not make it optional? That way everybody would be happy.

I agree. They should have made it optional. I might have been swayed by the Linear Espresso wood but not by the standard wood. To each his own, but I think the aluminum "modernizes" rather than "cheapens" the car. I have enough real wood furniture in my house. I don't need it in my car.

I also wish it was an option and not the only option. I love the new wood and how it looks in the GS, thinking about it now I should have just got the Lux version and added the F-Sport bumper and wheels. Oh well I'm happy anyways!
