Like I said, I love the look but wouldn't want to ever get one again (and no I'm not selling mine, car is leased)
thanks for the info doug...yeah i do that all the time! so wood wheel is not for me

Anybody know if the silver surround is just a overlay?

I've heard of the titanium lights but after seeing them in the picture, I would love to see them in person. The total sport design package is aawesome.

Those colors pump new life into a 5yrold interior design. I remember seeing a CLK 430 with a similar interior package and i fell in LOVE. And if you think pics are nice, imagine the same color scheme with 2 tone seats! i think charcoal grey and saddle must be a match made in heaven.

Anyone second that motion?

I was undecided about the saddle interior but I showed it to a few female member of my family and they all gave it a thumbs down. All preferred the black leather to it.

Ultimate Sportdesign would have been including the black wood from 2002 also. Its so HOT!!!

The smell of brand new leather and wood, your senses would be overcome. No need to roll down the windows at all for the first few months.

Remember it is a GS300 - that already has E-shift. Still no E-shift for the GS430

You mean you missed the group buy? I think its still on with the wheel with the thumb rests. You can check here https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...threadid=49805

I drive with my knee all the time. It a leather piece on the bottom of the wheel. My car is the one showing the interior on the 8th page.
