Default Want to buy an LS430 with Saddle color interior

Hello all!
I am looking for a 2004-05 LS430 with the Saddle color interior.
Anyone know of where I might be able to find one?

I see you're in Oklahoma. I've never seen a saddle interior LS for sale in OKC. They're pretty rare cars. You could try running a search by interior color on Autotrader.

I've looked online, but some people think the tan interior is saddle.
By saddle, I mean the baseball glove color, with the black dash & carpets.
Is that what she has?

Yes it's that orange kind of tone to the leather with the darker wood I have just recently bought one a few weeks ago and my mother in law drives an 04

Default That will be difficult to find

Saddle was only available on Custom Luxury and Ultra Luxury packages and only in a couple of exterior colors, black onyx and flint mica, according to a 2005 dealer brochure that I have.
Very rare.

I drove over 400 miles to get my 04 but I did not buy it because the interior. Service history and condition were the deciding factor for me. The Saddle was just a plus. Try Auto Trader and do a nationwide search. Should be able to find one somewhere. May take a while but they will pop up.


Here are a few pics of mine:

In 2004 LS, the Saddle interior color was available with the following 7 exterior colors:

● Moonlight Pearl
● Blue Onyx
● Briarwood Pearl
● Flint Mica
● Mystic Gold Metallic
● Crystal White
● Black Onyx

Awesome photos! I saved them.
Distance isn't a big problem for me.
I bought a Mercedes in Palm Beach a few years ago and I bought my Jaguar in Reno.
Long drive home is good for getting to know the car.

What is semi-analine leather?
They'd have a fun time with that one on Top Gear.

Thanks...The car is actually undergoing deconstruction to return it back to an unmodified state.

I wish I had the money to buy it. White on saddle is so rare.
