I personally prefer premium package, unfortunately most of the dealers have the X package. I really like the Auburn bird's-eye maple interior trim. So u guys tell me which one u guys prefer thx...

I hated the alum inteior trim so I got the luxury package. But the deal that I made with my wife was that I would agree to the luxury package only if she would agree to let me do a coilover installation. She did so I went Luxury!
BUT if you do not want to mod your car you would be better off with the x-package. You get a little more performance and those extra slick wheels.

No right or wrong ..... but some people believe the wood interior goes against the grain (!) of what a performance car should be. At first I wanted the wood trim when I started looking at IS's, but came away with the metallic finish as I got the Sport Package. I wouldn't swap now .... the metallic style goes with the performance image, at least as far as I'm concerned. It goes particularly well with the Tungsten Pearl paint.
Take your pick.

Here in Texas there are very few X-packages on dealer lots. Most have the wood trim. Suppose it is just a regional variation.

If this combo is possible it will almost certainly be a special order. I've never seen this in a dealer's inventory in TX. And you are only allowed SGM, TP, or Obsidian color with X-package. Maximum flexibility would be to decide if you want wood or not. And then order a Sport Package (metallic) in any color you want, or a luxury package (wood) in any color your want.
