Gotta agree with Jayclapp. Whatever you're driving is (likely) you're number one choice. And for me it's gonna be Bordeaux on Almond (glorified Tan). I personally don't care for all black interiors. Too morbid. They make me feel like I'm riding in a coffin.

For me it went:

White on black/saddle
Black on black/saddle
Flint Mica on black
Silver on black (The 04-06 silver)
Red on black (I saw a red LS once at a dealership about 3 years ago and haven't seen one since. I assume it's an OEM color)

I chose black on black since it's extremely rare out here. White on saddle/black is even more rare and I've never seen a Flint Mica on black LS for sale. Since I bought my LS I haven't seen any black on blacks for sale since then.

Theres a reason the white pearl on cashmere is highly desireable and usually higher priced...what a coincidence that's what I own....lol. Bought the car for my gf. If it was me I would get black on cashmere....

Hey all, just picked up an 05 CL paint code is 072 which is moonlight pearl. Can't find anything on if the interior is ash or ucru? Anyone know what color combo was available in an 05 CL with moonlight?
