It's hard to tell with the reflections, but it looks to be cypress pearl, which is a gray green.

Thanks everyone ! The interior is beige, so Briarwood it is.

In person (and in normal light) does it look green (cypress) or brown (briarwood)? The cashmere (beige) interior can be in either color.

Definitely briarwood, I would have loved to have found one when I was looking, definitely one of my favorite colors on the LS430. To me the color is unique and elegant in a nicely understated way. Lots of folks don't like it...that works for me also : )
