For those of you with the Ecru Interior, like myself, may I suggest using a Magic Eraser, which does absolute wonders cleaning anything that discolors the beautiful Ecru interior without doing any damage or harm whatsoever. Its amazing what these things can do.

Does it work with black interior?

I don't see why the color of the seats would make a difference. I just know that with my Ecru interior I am always amazed in thinking that my seats are clean, then after using the magic eraser how much dirt actually comes off, almost like magic. So, I'd say Yes, if you have any color car seats and you use the product as directed (meaning trying it dry first, and then if necessary lightly wetting the eraser), it should remove whatever dirt is on your black seats. FYI - the wife and I actually buy our magic erasers at a Dollar Store, for you guessed it, $1 for 4 pieces, and it seems to work just as well as the Mister Clean store bought brand. Good luck.

I saw a Midnight Pine SC today at the Toyota dealer while I was getting my LS 460L serviced.

I just bought one just like your beauty so to me that is a rare color as they are not easy to find in my opinion. You see all the other colors black, silver, red, dark blue. 2 dealers kept calling it an indigo blue pearl. I told the dealer I am sorry but you need to check the door decal if it says 1GO Lexus says it's Smoky Granite. Well, your baby is pretty cant wait until mine arrives. My interior is in saddle color.

Is this Smoky Granite? She is a beauty!

I've had more people comment about how beautiful the car is in the month or so that I've owned it than you could imagine.

Nice car.

Yes, that is Smokey Granite Mica. You don't see it often. I have never seen another one on the road. I know they exist, I just haven't seen one.

In Japan, what we call Lexus is always Soarer.

Here's a stock photograph. Sorry I don't have one of my actual car, but it looks just like this except that I chose saddle leather rather than the cream colour (can't remember what they call it..)

It's a stunning exterior colour and looks intriguingly different under different lighting conditions. I never tire of looking in the rear-view mirror to watch the heads turning....

Stunningly beautiful

Wow. I'm not a fan of white cars, but that's gorgeous.
