Default Caramel nuluxe trim

Do you like your Caramel nuluxe interior? Does it blend nicely or just ok with the black dashboard and the grey ceiling? I have never seem caramel nuluxe interior in person and I am very interested to know. Pics will be great! Thanks.

I have the caramel interior and i love it. There is one problem, the nuluxe turns white a lot but it wipes right off. I am not sure why it does it (maybe because I wear sunblock). It gets annoying.

Aside from that the black dash goes well with it but the black gets noticeably dirty easily. If you even touch it with your shoes it turns white.

sorry my camera isnt charged or else I'd take pics for you.

I really love my caramel interior. I too was worried about the grey clashing after seeing pics of that before taking delivery, but you really don't look for it/notice it much when in the car. The caramel color is very warm/inviting to me and really make it look classier than black (I had black leather in my last car & love that too).

No white on the caramel issues here, it must be his sunblock. The nuluxe doesn't really breathe that well though, wish these seats were cooled.

I concur about the black trim pieces (like the glove box/doors and dash), they do get white if you touch them, very easily and kind of annoying, but I can live with it!

It's absolutely fantastic.

I really really wanted leather, but after checking out caramel it was the only option for me.
