YES!

I was just about to post asking about this. It seems to get those marks VERY easily... I'm guessing that they can be rubbed off or cleaned off fairly easily because they're not really stains or gashes, just some sort of white residue from the material they used.

It's just that it sucks how easily those marks show up on the black interior. I guess that makes two negatives for black: hot as all hell in the summer, and easily marked. But oh well... it still looks beautiful.

It's so embarrassing to tell my friends in a brand new Lexus "Ummm... can you try not to touch the door panels too much? ... Thanks" And then of course they do it anyways just to spite me. I have great friends.

I'd rather have those problems than having to deal with cleaning the dye marks from jeans and leather jackets off the cashmere / sterling leather seats. I still like black leather interiors for lower maintanence.

Not exactly...

I find the white streaks on the bottom of the doors also, its also from rubber rubbing on the doors, when people use there feet to help push the door open wider (WHICH I HATE) it makes these white streaks also...

definitley that dry skin, it's more like a scratch, I 've had my dsm for 10 years and not one scratch, but my lex already has 2, the material they use is hard and a little scartch won't go away. I believe someone posted about this and said he took it to the dealer and they had to melt a little off for the scratch to go away.

It is not dry elbows...Though they easily come off from my doors, they are quite annoying. It is from my elbows and it happens when i wear loation and when I do not wear lotion. I dont know what it is.
