Default Any SGM w/ Cashmiere out there?

I see that in the brochure it says that this color combination is available as well as on the Lexus site but my dealer says it's not available. Does anyone have this color combo? I think this would look nice and I am getting ready to commit on a car so I don't want to make the wrong decision.

If I am not mistaken, SGM usually comes with black or grey, no cashmere.

I would have liked the Cashmere also but my "Black Pearl" SGM came with sterling. I think the sterling matches better and am satisfied with it.

I thought it was a bit odd at first too but then how much different would it be from black/cashmiere? Still a dark color in the same spectrum.

That's my color combo. I thought I would reget it that I didn't go black inside but after getting the black all weather mats I love the combo.

Glad to see that someone out there has that combo. I think it's a nice color combo myself. Now let's see if I can get ahold of one.

I have SMG and cashmere. My first car had grey interior , second had black...now it's cashmere. I think Lexus did a great job in the color combo schemes with the IS.

Well I let the dealer know that I was looking for one here in So. Cal. We'll see what they can find although I'm not holding my breath.

Default SGM/Black interior

I regret the black interior every day that goes by. The sterling is the way to go. The black scuffs and shows every bit of dust. Hours after a detailing, starts to deteriorate, and this is a car that is garaged at home, at work, and at fitness center.

That's what I am afraid of. I had a '00 Camaro SS with black leather and it was nice but got very hot inside too. I think I am ready for a change of color myself and the Sterling is growing on me though I still like the Cashmere better. If Sterling or black are the only options i will go with sterling. I wouldn't have said that a couple years ago, I must be getting old!

The dust I can see, but do you really think that I light grey interior would scuff less than black? Especially the bottom door sill, that is constantly getting kicked and rubbed with shoe and sneaker bottoms?
