There were a few packages that gave you matte wood like the 2011 touring package but I don't think any Touring models had Mark Levinson because I have never seen one with ML. There was a 2012 with Topaz leather trim and matte trim too. It looks like some AWD models also offered matte wood trim too where matte was not available on RWD models, I have never seen or heard of a RWD LS long wheel base or with allabaster with matte wood trim but have seen a few AWD models with it.

 

I would love that car, matte, long wheelbase, no air suspension, but I don't want AWD.

 

Hello and congrats on your Lexus.

I also have the alibaster and matte in my 2010 460 L. The wood finish reminds of very nice furniture.

Do do be careful if you wear blue jeans a lot because the dye will come off. However, I use Mcguiers as a quick clean and protection and have used the woolite and water (5 to 1) combo to do some cleaning of the leather as well.

I hope you enjoy your new car and have many happy miles.

Best,

Cubby

 

Try a product called Ultima Interior Shampoo gel for dye transfer...

 

Is the alabaster leather a lighter color than Parchment? It seems like the same to me.

 

It is lighter but generally in pictures,it doesn’t appear to be much different.

 

I haven't seen the parchment interior, but alabaster does seem lighter.

 

 

Alabaster is a good bit lighter than parchment. It’s almost white.
