its all good. other thread will be taken care of.
as for your original Question: if you *could* you should get black leather too, but it would be costly. cant you just trade your car in for a black one??
i think your car is fine as is, BTW

All Black would be tight, but i think changing the interior would be extremely difficult. I thought about doing it, but you couldn't just replace the leather, you would have have to redo all the carpet all over the interior and the vinyl on the dash and center console. If you know a way to do all these, let me know because i definitly want to do it too

Thanx for all the advice guys. I'm gonna see what I can do to get the interior redone in black. I was thinking of checking the salvage yards, ebay, and possibly buying alot of leather dye. Which ever is the least expensive. I would just get a new ES but this one has a lot of centamental value. It and my trans am are the only two cars I plan on keeping until they fall apart on me. I'll let you guys know what I'll come up with.

Well up here in Indiana, the Black/Black can get pretttttttttttttttty hot!! I often burn my fingers trying to open the doors after only an hour or 2 out in the sun, and mind you it's not texas heat. And then you get a nice heat wave when you open the door, and you can see the heat moving out. It can get pretty stifling but the Lexus air conditioning is superb most of the time! yea....

Your offer intrest me Litfuse. Maybe I can talk my wife into selling her car and then I'd buy yours. But it would take me a little while before I could purchase it. Oh and BTW guys Utah only has like two seasons, summer and winter. Summers are really hot and winter is extremely cold and snowy. I won't be painting the car until March or April of next year.
