Default Looking at a 2015 crafted line. Little help?

Hey all,

Finally purchasing an ls460 after a long time researching. I came across a 2015 f sport rwd. I love it, but the seats are not the standard red and black. They are black leather centers, with grey/black alcantara bolsters. Also doesnt have black door handles. Was this an actual option? I cant imagine someone would fake this (considering everything else is correct), but i cant find pics of ANY other cars with this seat? Thanks!!

Call your local dealer. The dealer will provide with necessary information regarding your vehicle including interior options.

Also take a look at the car on the Lexus Owner's Site. Put in the vin and you can not only see all work done, but there is a detailed description of the car and what all came installed.

Crafed line only comes with red and black seats. Red trim on the doors, floor mats and truck mats. It comes with Black handed, black side mirrors and black rims

F Sport isn't same as Crafted. So if it's black seats, it's an F sport only.

Ya, i thought so, this is showing to be an oem crafted line.

Its not normal black seats. I hope these pics show up.the car also has non f sport wheels (the lexus site shows the original owner had them swapped for some base rims for some silly reason. Any more input? It os a crafted, but ive NEVER seen the suede seats?

Aluminum pedals? Thats so out of place in an LS... all the car is missing is a pillar mounted 3-gauge pod and 9” exhaust pipes.

The whole concept of LS460 F-Sport is flawed considering weight and suspension of the vehicle.

apparently that’s the seat. I think you’re ok. I have the F Sport and as for looks, it’s much sportier inside. Good luck.

You are certainly allowed to believe as you like!

That is the standard crafted seat. Thanks for your input!
