Alright Khoa, you don't have to post up your whole build thread.. :P

I would love to obtain red leather seats, but I think I would want the black suede leather even more!

Lexus glass is UV blocking, so hopefully this would prevent fading of the interior. Unless of course you park with the windows open

Doesn't sound like anything a garage and/or tint won't prevent...;-)

Thanks for all your input. I went ahead and closed the deal!! 2012 Nebula/Red with 32k miles. I'm currently traveling so I don't have the car yet.

Nice!! Definitely think that's the 2nd best color combo next to white/red but I'm a lil bias! I almost have in and bought a NGP w/ red interior when I couldn't find the perfect white/red combo.
How much did you get it for if you don't mind me asking?! And def send pics!!

Lol white/red was my 1st option as well when I was looking but stumbled upon a great deal on a nebula/red and I am so glad I picked it up. The best color combo in my unbiased opinion.. I love the red interior on these Fs and have gotten tons of compliments on them wherever I go.. If you think you will get sick of the red, there will always be someone out there to swap interiors with cash on top since not many OEM red interiors were made and are extremely hard to come across.

The red interior is pretty bold but better than the orange interior the F had at one point...

I gotta say, in the past 2 months of owning this car, the interior has grown on me. I hope it will match nicely with my Red BBS LM center-caps and lug nuts .

^^^^Welcome to the forum, lot's of GREAT information here and GREAT folks to share it with

However, you may want to post your question here:

That's the correct forum for your IS350.

A 12' in Nebula with the red interior! Rare combo and would have loved to have that! Although the Obsidian with black never disappoints and when clean always looks the best imo.
