I would do beige because of the contrast it would provide with the cars exterior. Everyone would expect you to have a black interior. Although I know alot of people are partial to all black interiors.

i would suggest black only because i have the beige and it geets dirty very easily... especially if you have kids or any absent minded passengers

I would suggest black interior. I have beige and it's a pain to maintain. Even though I make sure that my passengers and myself are clean before we get in, the interior still manages to get dirty. IMHO, I feel that the lighter interiors better match cars with light exteriors. Black to beige interior might be too much of a contrast.

I have the Willow interior and my 03's interior looks brand spanking new. The car is six years old, been through 6 Midwest winters, one 3 y/o boy in the backseat kicking the front seats and center console, and I do nothing other than the following to maintain the interior:

1) All weather floor mats. The fabric mats won't last.
2) Wipe the leather down with a moist towel once a month
3) Use a leather conditioner once a year
4) Vacuum the interior four times a year
5) Wipe the interior panels down twice a year
6) Apply a low sheen dashboard and panel cleaner twice a year

That's it. Logic would suggest the Willow interior would be harder to maintain, but I find it far easier to maintain than the former charcoal black interiors I've had in the past. When looking for used G35, all the charcoal interior Gs showed significant scuffs to both the plastic panels and leather plus they show dust big time. The Willow interior don't show scuffs and they don't show dust. I'll admit that charcoal looks sportier and I probably would have got it if I could afford new, but when it comes to used, the used Willow interior Gs looked far better. In 05, Infiniti to Wheat which is lighter than the Willow and the loaners I've had with the Wheat interior didn't look like they were holding up very well. The leather in the 04.5 and 05+ doesn't seem to be remotely as nice as the 03/04.

black interior, imo its more luxury/sporty all at the same time. i think any interior is easy to maintain if your not lazy.

I think a black exterior with a clean beige interior screams luxury. Black is more dull and sporty.

thank you all for your input, i was thinking of a beige interior for an 04 due of the contrast and the luxury look, i dont have any kids for now so i dont think it should be that hard to maintain...
