Default LP Exterior, help on Interior choice

I'm looking at a GS350 F SPORT in Liquid Platinum. I've gone through the Blk/Blk kick on my past 4 vehicles and I'm over the constant cleaning and buffing of black. It's absolutely beautiful when clean but within a day it's covered in dust and dirt. Before black I was on the white kick. Now, I'm looking at the Liquid Platinum. The problem I'm having is selecting the interior. I was going to stick with the black but I saw a LP with Flaxen and now I'm confused. Opinions please...

You're going to still have dust collecting on a black dash and steering column with any color you choose.

u gotta go with Cabernet, its great combination, when i pick up my car i compare with flaxen side by side, and the flaxen was too light for me. anyway no matter what Interior color u gonna end up with, 4GS is the smartest choice u made. btw before u made ur decision, drive both color under the sun and open up the sun roof, look from outside should help u decide.

thanks for the quick replies. I like the cabernet too. I haven't seen it in the silver. I'll check it out tomorrow! Now I have three to pick from!

My previous car was black exterior/interior. Yeah, it looks great when polished but my life was too busy to keep it clean.

Here's another vote for the Cabernet interior. If you're buying an F sport I think that's the way to go.

I special ordered my car so I got to choose any color combination I wanted. i almost chose the liquid platinum/cCbernet combination but my wife thought the exterior color looked a little washed out in the intense sun that we almost always get here in the south. I had to agree with her when viewing it in the sun so I chose Nebula Grey with Caberbnet interior so I would have a little more exterior color.

I have been black/black for my last two Lexi(GS and RX) now I have LP and cabernet and it's a great combo for the F Sport.
