It is possible. And the interior sizes are different in each generation.

At the end of the day, it's probably cheaper to trade your car in for a car with a black interior. Replacing all the seats, the door panels, the steering wheel, the centre console, the dash, and the carpeting isn't going to be cheap or easy.

But I must admit, if I didn't have a black interior myself, I'd be wondering how to get one too....(no offense to the guys with tan)....I just think black looks so much sexier

Took me an extra 3 weeks and $1000 to find my car with a black interior. That's how much the color meant to me.

Check out what an upholstery shop would charge you.

Good luck with your decision.

Well, facts are facts...

If I couldn't have black, then grey would have been my second choice.
