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 saw a few non-sport cars with the matte wood while I was looking. Here's another one not far from me, although I didn't bother looking at it once I read the Yelp reviews and saw that it's one of those scammy places that tell you in the small print that all advertised prices are based on a $2k down payment. I won't deal with people who play those games.

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...

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