Agreed. I always loved this interior color on the SC430, LS430, and the Sportdesign GS's. Wish they offered it on more models.

Im all for the rare interior colors. Red, Saddle, Blue. They look so good.

MB also has a White Leather interior with black dashboard and surroundings for the S550. I posted those pics here awhile back as well. Looks stunning.

I generally prefer the natural to tan variations. Given the chocies of dyes, the cream/ivory is mine.

Black on black.

All other colors are losers.
If you wish to debate, we can fight.

Well, I'm afraid we're going to have to get into a rumble.






Tan all the way!

Most luxurious and inviting of all interiors.

Black is just to dark of an atmosphere.

Let's go.
How do you want to do this?

I'm guessing you're not in Texas right?

Oh let's just compromise and say black is better.

Not a big fan of leather in general, but among the leather shades, white and ivory / cream are about the classiest, but you have to be VERY careful not to get them dirty.

+1 on that. Classy and racy combined.

I still think overall, creme or white leather always looks rich and luxurious. That's how I would do it on any car but a silver car.

For me it does depend on exterior color. For my RX, I like the black exterior with the tan interior. However, two weeks ago I cleaned the leather and boy was that stuff ever black. We pounded that dirt out it. Reminded me of those Oxy 5/Oxy 10 zit commericals when I was young (or Stridex commercials) where they show what is left behind on the tissue.
