Anytime DF...let''s ride!

Thanks Sundial...Thanks so much for the input! Do you think the light gray in the black car will get dirty? I didn''t even think to ask about black on black...maybe they have it. I''m taking off of the lot....Did it get really hot?

 

[Sundial]

I think the gray interior will be easier to keep clean than the black, but the black on black combo is pretty sharp! I live in the southwestern US and didn''t find the black to be too hot. I also had the gold logo package on the exterior and it added a nice touch.

Thanks for the help sundial.... They have silver exterior with black interior and black exterior with light gray interior in stock.... you don''t think the lighter leather could get stained or the carpet dirty? I was thinking the darker wouldn''t show as much? Argh!

 

[Sundial]

To me the tan interior (which I have now on my Lexus GX470) is the one that shows every stain. I had gray interior on a Nissan and it always looked good. The black didn''t show stains, but every time my Jack Russell terrier went in the vehicle with me there were tiny white hairs all over everything. It drove me crazy. I guess if you are not transporting white haired creatures it probably wouldn''t matter!

Is the GX the big SUV? That''s a sweet ride!!! They all are, really! the gray is super light like the beige though. I''m such a piggy too LOL.... Thanks for all the input!!!

Sun- Here is the light gray...

I found a pic......But my front windows are tinted too (I wanted a little pimping LOL).....THe rims were about $1000 so I passed but if I want I can get them locally.

What do you think? Go with black or silver???

 

[Morticia]

Hey MMM, sweet ride! Congrats. I vote black exterior with silver interior. The black RX''s look so sharp.

I''m currently trying to talk the FI into letting me get a Lexus RX. He''s very anti-SUV though.

Congrats again!

Thx! Morti- she is a 6 cyl. and it''s going to take a lot less gas than some other suvs and turbo charged or heavy sedans!!!! You can convince him!

 

[Sundial]

You are right the silver is VERY light, but it sure looks pretty with that black exterior!

MMM the Lexus SUV I have now is the middle-sized one that is comparable to the Toyota 4Runner. I love it! My hubby has had several Lexus sedans and we have never had a bit of trouble with any of them.

I''m psyched!!! I am even more excited b/c I called another dealer and his price was $3.00 more! LOL...So I know I''m good.

But I''m still undecided on color! UGH. I have never been so flip floppy!!! Every minute is a new choice!!!!

The vote is still black exterior gray interior??? Sundial- that gray looks just as light as the beige? If I get all weather mats will I be ok?

 

[hlmr]

Ooooooooooooooh, I love the black! Can I vote? Okay, I vote black!! Soooo Cool!!!

 

[moremoremore]

Of COURSE you get to vote!

To you guys for your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, I really should be driving a Yugo with these F''ing student loans LOL

cheers--Sharon

Hehehe

 

[moremoremore]

Doh!

 

[Sundial]

Both colors are really pretty, but I say go for the black! Yes the gray interior is as light as the beige, but you just have to clean the floor mats once in a while and you will be fine or go with the all weather ones as you mentioned. You are going to look devine in this vehicle!!!

 

[belle]

mmm is trying to decide whether or not she should get black?

 

[moremoremore]

LOL Belle....You saying black is a no brainer too?

And I''m laughing Sundial...what I"m going to look like is a bag lady driving a nice car LOL!!!

 

[hlmr]

heehee, I think belle is wondering why you even have to think about black being the colour of your new car because you LOVE black.....black clothes, black handbags, etc.

And lady, I''m sure you will look awesome in your cool new set of wheels with your designer bags!
