Interior headliner is black as opposed to gray.

Much cleaner look IMHO, but some find it a bit confining, for lack of a better word.

Standard equipment? If so, on which model?

In my IS250 F-Sport, it's black but in other models is it gray? Haven't rally payed attention to it. I know that in my dad's old 2013 GS350, it had a gray one which IMO was ugly and didn't blend well with his black leather seats.

Personally I always thought a grey headliner with black interior just looked low-rent.

I would have liked it to be a lighter color.

I honestly think the interior is way too dark at night. It needs some led's inside just to shine down so the inside is brighter.
