You haven't seen it yet because it's only offered in the 2003 GS300 SportDesign which basically JUST came out, sooner or later somebody will get one..

My interior looks just like that.... when I'm wearing my sunglasses

Not a fan of the color initially.... it might look ok with a Cinnibar if they still made that color.

Wow, I know that I wouldn't choose that color. Kinda looks like the color of baby poop.

I think that color looks awesome - it's a mocha type color and I would trade my black sober interior for that anyday!!

Baby poop usually green, at least early on (says Dad with two sons). That looks more like dog dookie to me. Or, as we used to call it in the college days long ago, "umber lumber".

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but it happens to be the same color as the Saddle interior in my SC430. For those of you that think it looks like baby poop or dog dookie, it is one thing to express your dislike for something and another to trash it.

Since it's pretty rare that I hear this type of **** on the SC430 threads, you've made me very happy that I traded in my GS300 for an SC. Thanks.

No one is trashing anything, but exactly as you say, expressing an opinion. Not to mention, kidding around. And just what the heck does your last comment mean? You're too good for a GS now?

Pardon me, dseag2; I was pulling someone's leg (evidently yours) and it came off in my hand! And I should have said "looks more like the color of...." rather than "looks like......". Personally, I like the color reasonably well.

As far as driving one thing vs. another, I loved my first generation coupes (yes, plural). But when I wanted the fastest, quickest, best handling car in the Lexus lineup, I had to make the jump to the GS. The fact that I got even more room in the back and two extra doors for my growing boys was just a bonus!!

Maybe the word we're looking for is intense.
