Question IS-F seat stitching...

So the Lexus.com website states the black leather interior has blue stitching but the white leather has black stiching?

Owners, is this correct? The IS-F's I've seen with white leather had blue stitching I thought...

I've looked through all the available close up pics on CL of the IS-F interior...
(from the recent buyers)

To me the black has black stitching, and the white has black & white stitching..

The only visible Blue Stitching I found is on the owners manual...

Here is a better close up pic of the Black Leather w/ Blue Stitching..

I sat in the Matador Red IS-F @ Longo Lexus last night...

The color clash on the IS-F is so awesome. I never noticed the embroidered logo on the seat bottom. That is really classy. The owners manual alone is sharp. Definitely a dream car.

Come on Phil....

Meaning... Not one person bothered me and it really felt like it was mine...

It felt like the day I picked up my 08 IS350..!!

I would like to mention I did get "Sticker Price Shock"

I was impressed with the car in general and the interior is just like my Sport Package..
Except for the:
Gauge Cluster, Black Headliner & Pillars, Silver CF Trim, Sportier Front Seats, Perforated Shifter & Steering Wheel... Lets not forget the F Logo's & Blue Stitching on the seats...
Everything else is exactly the same as my 08 IS350 with Sport Pkg Nav & ML (interior wise that is...)

Edit: I would like to mention the "gap issue" seems a bit better & less around the Nav & Vents, when compared to my 08 IS350
