Lexus 2-tone interior. I like.

Lexus is slowly but surely getting better with interiors, the only frustrating thing (as I have stated numerous times) is the rather dead color palette on anything other than the SC and LS.
SC get's saddle leather, camel leather, espresso colored wood, brown walnut wood, black leather, and ecru leather. They could still do more with wood options, but this is at least more than any other Lexus.
LS gets Alabaster leather, cashmere leather, grey leather, black leather, dark brown ash wood, medium brown walnut wood, and grey wood.
The ES and IS both get the same color wood with your choice of the standard black, grey, or tan leather, and the GS isn't much better. Black leather with maroon wood? Yuck. Um...hello...this isn't Toyota anymore and we aren't selling Corollas. All of the Lexus models should have available camel leather, espresso wood, alabaster leather, dark brown ash wood, etc. These combinations and options give the car a lot more character and warmth and also give owners the ability to pick something that they really like rather than just the standard palette mentioned above. Luxury is about choice and excess, and giving Lexus cars the same color options as a Corolla, Accord, and Fusion isn't really a "luxury".
I'd love to see some of these combinations applied to the IS, GS, LX, and GX...
And I know that I am a little bias
and not everyone loves it, but at least this interior shows some character and passion:

The first 2IS pic is simply of a cashmere interior, but the upper lining of the dash and door panels are black across all 2IS. It looks dual tone, but it's simply a single-tone cashmere interior.
Otherwise, the Passionate Red 3GS interior is only available in Japan (and perhaps other markets outside of the U.S.).

The two tone interior of the SC is the only "real" dual-tone (two colored leather) interior.
