I know. Car companies don’t care.

Interesting design, feels old school. Just noticed the **** integrated into the cluster too.

You've never seen the inside of an LC before?

I have - even sat in one, but it was at the dealership when I dropped my car off for service. Must have missed it with the black interior.

I don't think this interior color is available any more. I think it was for a special edition. The current interior options are black, caramel and red.

Maybe. Always thought this was a international interior

I really like it and will probably be my choice if I get a LC. Would opt for black all-weather mats during rainy season though ...

The caramel interior is really nice. I’ve driven a few LC’s with it and didn’t mind it. I would never buy an LC with this interior though. The Blue/White/Orange interior is definitely my favorite. It’s stunning in person. We had a customer that removed the orange to put white ostrich in it’s place and it looks pretty awesome too.

The caramel interior was really common on Infrared LC500’s that we sold. I don’t remember really seeing it in the other color LC’s.

Surprised there is no black accents aside from the female seat buckle.

it is so beautiful in person.

I absolutely love this interior color combo as well! I would just install very good black floor mats to cover the white carpet. As far as I'm aware this interior is only available on the limited production (no longer made) "Structural Blue" exterior color.

Too much going on in that interior IMO, I prefer the straight white and blue that bit posted.
