The light colored mats in a state like Georgia are a completely different proposition compared to Northern states where our shoes are sure to track in ice melt, sand and other muck during the winter months. Mats that light would be trashed after the first winter, but there are alternatives such as all-weather liners for those sloppy winter months. I like the light colored mats from the photos, but I think my OCD tendencies would clash…

Hmmm - when we're in FL, the mats seem to take a worse beating from sand etc. than they do up north from ice and salt - but the beauty part of the all weather mats is you just wash them down and they look new again..
Not to mention how awful they will look in short order with one drop of foot traffic. But great if the OP loves them. I stick with black interiors and many folks find that BORING. I guess these are great if you prefer carpeted mats. The Lloyds all weather variety look horrible.
My chocolate brown is best of both worlds. Not black—-you can see and enjoy its beauty but not so light that dirt will show in no time. Shame Lexus only offers slate black interiors now. I find it dull and does not contribute to the beauty of the Lexus interior. Maybe 2025 will bring some changes in dash, carpet, steering wheel and door colors and some new exterior colors, as well.
Not sure I like the floor liners that came with my ES. Has anyone replaced those with OEM carpeted mats? Thoughts?
Thanks.
Didn't you get both sets with the car? My 2024 car with the OEM floor mats. Not the trunk mat though. I had to eat the all season floor mats because they were already on the sticker. Just traded in my 2013 Avalon Limited. I live in the rust belt and never had the plastic liners. Yes the driver mat was a bit stained but by the time you sell the car you can find a New Old Stock ones for cheap. It's kind of like your grandma that wrapped the good furniture in plastic coverings. Remember those? Kind of defeats the purpose. Go ahead and change them!

Pretty sure when you have the all weather mats as a paid for option, you still get the carpeted mats - I know I did with both of our cars.
