Where is the "Like" button? Sometimes I just want to grab hold of these designers to ask them what they were thinking with the color inconsistencies.

So true, the gray headliner was one of the first things I noticed about the saddle interior. It seems out of place. Wish they would have used an alternative color for the headliner.

Like black. Doesn't the F sport have black headliners?

Correct, F-Sport has the black headliner (all black interior)


On the note regarding the light gray headliner and Saddle Tan interior... As the minority it seems, I actually like the light gray headliner in tone with the silver/chrome accents and black dash. It makes for a nice contrast to the rest of the interior and contributes to an airy feel to the cabin.

One can think this is a cost-cutting effort or designer oversight. In fact I feel it's the opposite and clearly thought out by the designer. The upper half of the interior is dominated by black, silver and light gray colors while the lower half showcases the gorgeous saddle tan and espresso bird's eye maple trim and colors.

Satin Cashmere, the best color hands down!

It will look best with any dark exterior color.

Saw the saddle interior with the Stargazer black exterior yesterday and it was absolutely beautiful!! It was a FWD though and I need AWD. If I didn't experience first hand with a previous SUV how hard it is to keep black clean, that would be my choice for sure.

Also saw a Satin Cashmere and saddle RX 450 and it looked nice.
