Anyway, I think those are just blondish wood trim, not bamboo ...

Bamboo is an attractive alternative for flooring because of its physical similarities to hardwoods. Bamboo floor manufacturers and sellers promote its strength, durability as well as resistance to insects and moisture while having the added benefit of being eco friendly. The hardness of bamboo ranges from 1180 (carbonized horizontal) to around 1380 (natural) using the Janka hardness test versus red oak (1290), white oak (1360), rock maple (1450), and hickory (1820),Brazilian Cherry / Jatoba (2350), (the higher the number the harder the material).[1]

but i dont doubt it will be super duper in the car, i was just pointing out usefulness for floors :-)

This design out classes the BMW 5, Merc E-CLass and A6... by a mile.
Who ever said Lexus are boring ?
I want to start seeing more of the bigger 19 inch wheels like in the press shots. On the past model you would rarely see the bigger optioned wheels most GS I saw has the smaller wheels
