Just bought my wife a used 2013 GX 460 with 47000 miles. We live in Desert area of SoCal, so she had her heart set on Tan interior. Black just gets way to hot.
Holy crap, what a pain in the but. I would venture to say that less than 5% of GX come with Tan interior. We literally searched every where for a decent priced used one. Carmax, Truecar, CL, Auto Trader, etc etc etc.
The few we found, most wanted premium prices. Was hoping to get 2014 or 15 with low miles and good price.
Ended up buying a Maroon (cabernet color) with tan interior. Interior was perfect on the car, the exterior had a few minor rock chips and scratchs (that should buff out).
Due to a crack in the windshield, we pick it up tomorrow, when it gets replaced.
So far, I would recommend Carmax. I tried to work with a San Diego Dealer, but they wouldnt budge on price, even when I showed them equal cars on Carmax 7-10K less. Literally almost the same car, but had black interior.
Ran out of time searching, she needed another car. So Carmax had one with Tan interior.
Almost bought one in Texas and had it shipped, but felt uncomfortable buying a car without seeing it and driving it.

We had almost the same experience with the interior color. The wife wanted tan and 95% of the units had a black interior. Plus we wanted the Luxury Package, which made things worse.
For the record, we also looked at Audi Q7 vehicles. Same thing, we'd find one that was optioned correctly, but always a black interior.
I have the exact same color combination and was in the same boat as you about 2 years ago. I ended up getting a 2014 CPO which took months to find the right combination of colors, packages and price. I'm in the LA area and Newport Beach had the closest thing, but black/black and about $1,500 more than what I ended up with...which I found in the Bay area, so I spent $300+ on a plane ticket, flew up and drove it back down. Very happy with my purchase!
