Dash Color
Does any know what color the dash board and steering wheel will be? Some picutres show them as being brown(with the Ivory interior) and some show them with black (again, Ivory interior)
With brown dash and steering wheel:
and with black dash and steering wheel:
Do we have a choice? Does it depend on the exterior color?

Dash Color
Hey 04RX330,
I'm wondering if the bottom pic is actually the light gray seat color. You know how pictures taken in different light can produce different colors. I was under the assumption that the darker dash came with the light gray leather and the brown dash came with the ivory seat color. But again, I am just assuming. I should never do that! Anyone else have thoughts about this?

Which interior?
Good question! That top pic looks like the interior I saw on the 330 at the Houston Auto Show. It was the Savannah Metallic exterior with what appeared to be the light grey interior (with the maple wood trim). Under the odd lighting conditions of the exhibit hall, the interior looked almost white, but the yellowish cast of the ivory could have been washed out by the bluish lighting. I asked the rep if that was the production model - wondering if the light color on the upper dash was going to cause the same reflection problems in the windshield as the current color with the ivory interior. Seems like the darker dash might not have the same problem. The tradeoff for better reflection control is pretty ugly, visually splitting the dash rather radically. Can't say that rep had an answer... Ever see that look of a deer in the headlights?

Maybe I haven't been following the 300 vs. 330 closely enough...
...but why are the center consoles different in these 2 pics (open style vs closed)? Are both really pics of the production 330?

Interior
From everything I have read - there are 3 color choices. Ivory, grey, and black. Would think the darker dash would be for the grey and black interiors and the lighter for the ivory. Also on past RX's it seems the outside color does dictate the inside. I usually saw this when you would "Build your own" on Lexus' web site.

If you use the build tool on the lexus.ca site, it will show you what combos you can have. It puts a lock on the ones not available.

The 330 will be at my local Lexus dealership next week so hopefully I can get some additional answers, but so far, thanks to you all and the informaiton in this site, I seem to know more about the 330 than the dealership does.
