African Rosewood Picture

Here is a pretty good picture of the African Rosewood. I personally think the Rosewood looks much better with the Wheat or Graphite interior. It just doesn't look as good to me with Stone. Don't get me wrong, I still think it looks good though.

That's "Stone"? Looks like blah to me.


Graphite with wood would be my choice (if I had to have wood ).

That is a good pic of the wood trim. Personally I like the more sporty look of aluminum trim. I just feel the wood trim better suits a big old luxury cruiser. 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.

In the order guide from the other link, it said that the wood ws not available with stone interior. So, maybe that is not stone, or is pre-production or something.

i can't stand it either unless it's REAL wood trim. something like on a bentley or double-R.

I would have preferred the African Rosewood to be shinier ( i.e. Lexus, Acura, etc. ).

Shinier wood is what looks fake/plastic to me. I really like the satin sheen, very different from the rest of the pack IMHO.

OH, SNAP! it doesn't look right with the gray though. wheat interior would make it blend in a little more.

I'm positive that is a picture of a wheat interior. The dash and console are brown like in the previous gen G35. Stone has a black dash and console
