semi-aniline leather
Does the SWB come with a choice of semi-aniline leather?
In looking on the Lexus web site it does not indicate it can be optioned on the SWB....but I have seen it on some. Does anyone have this leather on their SWB and what package was it in?...thanks

, I was still thinking about the LS430UL, where the leather was upgraded to semi-aniline only for the black leather interior, but not for the ecru - they call it the premium ecru leather for the UL in ecru. But yes, for the LS460, they are all upgraded to semi-aniline leather regardless of color now.

They cancelled the Saddle leather for the LS430 for Canada after the 04 model year, so no more LS430 with saddle leather for us for the 05-06 model years.
I've seen it in person once, I think it looks very nice, but I guess maybe very few people order the LS with the saddle leather up here, that's why they removed it as an option after one year . . . ?

I hope you can help me.
I am considering purchasing a 2009 or 2010 Lexus LS 460, and am trying to get some information on the quality level of the Leather in the car.
Specifically, I have noticed other less expensive cars in the Lexus lineup (ES, new Hybrid sedan, etc) that have an option to upgrade to Semi aniline leather which seems to me to be much more plush. For some reason Lexus does not provide this as an option in the LS I am looking at, but only as a package on the LWB model.
Can you clarify this for me?
Thank you!

A few interesting facts about aniline:
1. Highly Toxic
2. Highly Flammable
3. Is the starting compound for producing Tylenol
So it might poison you, spread fire when you crash your car, but let you die painlessly and headache free.

This is a Lexus LS460, I want FULL-aniline leather!
semi-aniline leather
My wife has an 04 LS430 Custom Luxury. It has the perforated black leather interior. Is it semi-aniline? I did a search and came across this thread as I want to make sure I'm cleaning and conditioning it correctly.
Thanks
