Yeah the Cabernet is darker, more a merlot color.

I think peoples re a lot less averse to color nowadays. I'm in the real estate business and I see it in my field, used to be ANY color would turn people away, now people like bold colors and dislike white or off white.

I think people are more accepting of different colors nowadays too. I always try to buy a car that if I decide to unload it quickly, it doesn't take too long.

I would say the safe bet would be the black. But, I'm going to go with the flaxen and take a chance. Picture looks good. I think it will look good with the Black headliner.

When I got the Rover, I paid more money for the optional black headliner and I liked it, it went well with the Ebony/Pimento seats.

I like the black headliner too, couldnt get it on the GS without the F Sport package...

How long are they saying you'll have to wait?

I wanted to wait a while so I could decide exactly what I want before ordering.

I told them I would like to get it in December. I think they should be ordering it soon so it will arrive before the first of the year. I should talk to salesman tomorrow and find out whats up.

They should make it an option for all their vehicles, but Range Rover only offers it on their high end packages too.

Cool!

For Lexus its more them trying to find their footing with the sport deal. My Luxury package on the GS is technically a more optioned more expensive package than the F Sport, but Lexus figures the black headliner only appeals to the "sport" buyer.

That saddle is more than a little darker and browner than the Flaxen.

The 2014 Hyundai Equus is a very nice car, just couldn't buy a Hyundai, yet.

I know Lexus's are very well made and reliable.

I ordered an Ultra White Exterior with Flaxen Interior car. Thought about the Black interior real hard, decided to try something different. Should arrive before Christmas 2013. lol

Options:
1) ALL-WEATHER PKG
2) F- SPORT COMFORT PKG
3) F-SPORT PKG
4) AUTOMATIC LED HEADLAMPS W/AFS
5) MARK LEVINSON 450-WATT SURROUND SOUND SYSTEM
6) 3-SPOKE HEATED F SPORT LEATHER STEERING WHEEL
7) BLIND SPOT MONITOR W/REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
8) LEXUS PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM
9) PREFERRED ACCESSORY PACKAGE
-inc: cargo net, trunk mat, wheel locks, rear bumper applique
10) ALL WEATHER FLOOR MATS
11) Remote Start- Installed by dealer

I think I got everything I wanted, lol

Thanks for everyone's advice on here.

I think the black headliner matched with black A, B, C pillars looks awesome. One of the better design enhancements from Lexus.

The black headliner was an option on the 12 Range Rover Sport Autobiography I bought. It was like a $350.00 option, I liked it alot. With the F-Sport option , it is standard, which is cool.

They gave me a premium price for my 12 RRS Autobiography and I got my dealer to let me order a 14 LS for $1,000.00 over invoice?

i felt like I got a pretty good deal.
