Default Opinion: Color Combination of Indigo Ink Pearl with the Camel interior?

I'm very much considering buying a 2006 in Indigo Ink Pearl and the Camel interior. My last 2 RX350's have had the Parchment or Ecru interior so I was hoping to find a SC that matched...no luck if I wanted to get the Indigo Ink Pearl this time (I'm usually a red guy).

The dealership is 9 hrs away so I'm trying to make my decision with all the online information, Carfax report and a ton of questions. Everything looks great but I'm not sure on the Camel.

The interior colors for the online pictures seemed a little off so I asked the dealership to send me a new picture. To me it looks close to Ecru (the lighter parts) but I've never seen the Camel in person.

Two questions: does this look like Camel to you? What do you think of this color combination?

No that is not saddle. That is Ecru. In 2006 Indigo Ink Pearl came with Ecru, Camel or Saddle. Based on the picture that is Ecru. I have a 2006 Lexus SC 430 38 page color sales brochure and based on the colors in it that is Ecru. Does it have the walnut wood? The Ecru only came with the walnut. The Camel came with the Espresso bird's-eye Maple wood. The Saddle came with the Walnut.

Another dealer picture

My 1st interior color preference was Ecru and my second was Saddle. I had seen them both but never the Camel. Looking at the VIN was a great idea....Thanks. The code is for Camel. You folks are are right about camera angles and being deceptive.

I'm guessing that the side view looks more like Camel? You know what? I'm buying her anyway!

That is definitely the camel interior in the blue car pictured above. Good looking car.

Damn, there are a lot of cool old vehicles in behind your car (which looks great, btw).
