I took some pics of a Liquid Platinum today with graphite interior and rosewood trim. Sorry for the blurry pics from my K750i phone.
I have to admit, I've never been a wood kinda guy, but the dark rosewood (not laminated or coated) with the dark interior is very, very classy, especially for this sedan.

WOW! I'm psyched - this is the interior color combo I have on order, and I have to say I'm very happy I went with this option. Graphite and the satin finish of the medium-stained rosewood is just perfect - and c'mon, how can you not love that grain?
The only thing I think is missing is the beauty of a wood-and-leather steering wheel, but that's a personal thing. Mmm...rosewood trimmed steering wheel. That'd be hot.
(on another note - has anyone ever seen the literal stone trim on some of the MB CL-class models? now that's ridiculous...)

I also checked with the other half and asked if she would like the wood trim and it was an emphatic "no". Really it's just a matter of personnal taste.
i'd never get it...:/

Seeing the rosewood on graphite in person made me a believer. I'm still young and want modern/contemporary/sleek, so I love the fancy aluminum.

So yours will be in sometime late December eh? You must be going crazy like myself.

Hey I know the guy who makes that rosewood; well, farms it anyway. He uses the same stuff on the speakers he makes - I have some in my living room. It's beautiful stuff. I'm more an aluminum guy myself, but I definitely like the matte wood finish Infiniti is using more than the laquered stuff other manufacturers use.

I know you liked the wood as you had in your current 03 G but I am sure you will be pleased with the aluminum in your sport 07.
