Wheat vs. stone for interior

Hi all, after seeing all the interior colors in person I think wheat is the most classy and open feeling in the car. In the pictures, the stone looks awsome on infiniti.com, but when I saw it in person the black on the dash with the stone looks kinda cheap. It also just does not feel as big inside with any black. I don't see much talk on the wheat interior, this is why I bring it up. Is it just me or do you get a much more luxury feel inside the wheat. The outside looks so sporty already and I'll be caring many VIP's and CEO's in the car. Everyone's opinion is greatly appreciated!

I'm putting a Ivory pearl/nav/premium/full aero with spoiler/ on order and putting the maya maido RT-5 wheels on.

Well......I would not use a G coupe to carry around VIP's or CEO's, but if that is what you plan to do, go with the wheat IMO, it is classier and a it more inviting....again IMO! I have graphite (black) interior and have always preferred the wheat (tan) interior because it looks classier and opens up the interior a bit! GREAT choice on exterior color.

I'll agree with you about the interior. I test drove a Laser Red/Wheat 05 AT and a Laser Red/Graphite 04 MT back to back before I ordered my ride, and the interior has a much more open feel with the wheat compared to the other 2 options. Kind of gives you a breath of fresh air.

05 6MT/Laser Red/Wheat/Premium/NO spoiler - arrives 4/21

I think the wheat is a bit too yellow for my taste so that is why I went with with stone.

Got the Laser Red with wheat and love it, like everyone else says seems to be a bit more classier than the darker interior.

Looking at the colors in the sun, the graphite shows wear on the seats much more and the stone with the black dash shows dust much more. As long as you keep the carpet clean with the wheat, it stands out and will always look the newest as time goes on.

i have the '05 6mt black ext w/ wheat interior. i will be getting a 30% tint next week. personally, i feel the wheat looks classie w/the blk ext.

as far as keeping it clean, thats not a problem as i am the only one in it. the family, once in a while. at which point i pull out the all season mats. and NO FOOD.
