Default Interior wood

Is the interior wood pieces in the black interior lighter than the wood pieces of a ivory or gray interior???

I know all wood pieces are not the same, but my ivory interior has a dark redish tone. Usually, on darker color interiors, the wood is lighter.

Any comments would help

I think the wood is exactly the same no matter what color the leather.

Your eye is being fooled by the different interior colors. The wood is the same, regardless. Of course, it IS wood and therefore there may be very slight variations in color depending on how it took the stain, but within those limits, it is as close as Lexus can match it.

its just your etes playing tricks on you since the black brings out the color of wood more dince the wood is lighter than the color of the interior
