Default gray interior question

question for those with the sterling gray interior - after time does the lighter leather show more marks and discolouration ie. more worried about the console top turning dark from the forearm/skin oils on it....or not...or is black the only interior colour to go ? looking at the tungsten exterior...thanks !

Mine's a 2006, and no marks or discoloration. Just clean the leather once in awhile and it won't get trashed.

IMO, the gray interior is less claustrophobic than the black, and the two-tone color is striking - it looks very nice in the IS. Black interiors look nice, but show absolutely every speck of dust and are quite hot.

My supra has a black interior and I'm trying to add some grey into it. I'm glad the IS350 has grey in it. The all black looks like you can find anything if it falls between or under the seats. A flash light is almost obligatory if you own a black interior. The grey looks very good on these cars. The most difficult interior to keep clean is by far the ivory interior.
