Color Combination?

Do you think Ivory Pearl goes best with stone or wheat interior or do you think both work well?

If I had to pick between the two, my choice would be the Stone interior.

I think all three interior colors work well..heres how i catorgorize each one:

Wheat with the rosewood looks really good and thats more of a conservative mature cabin combination

The stone and washi is very nice that is what i have i like it a lot

the graphite and washi is a really nice interior more sporty than the other two.. but the graphite and rosewood combo is my favorite!! Too bad it does'nt come on the S.

All the combinations work well.

1st choice: Wheat and rosewood, but not available on Sport models

2nd choice: Black and Washi trim (Sporty)

3rd choice: Stone and washi trim (good compromise between sport and luxury)

I picked Stone because all my cars had black interiors. I wanted a change.

The Stone combination has two-tone look.

Goes best with Graphite...

You need some contrast.

go with Wheat & Aluminum...

I actually just bought the IP w/Wheat/Aluminum last night and i was hesitant about it before seeing it. I originally wanted Wheat w/rosewood and thought the aluminum wouldn't go with the brownish interior. However, when I actually saw it in person, I def. loved it. I think the aluminum goes great with the wheat leather. I'll try and post pictures when I get home tonight so you can see as I don't think there were any other ones online since I was looking for them myself before I bought the car.

Also, I think the Wheat is a no-brainer for the IP.

I think that would depend greatly on the trim choice you are going with. If you are going with the washi trim, stone would look much better IMO. But if you are going with the Rosewood trim, I think wheat would look much better.

My first choice by far would be graphite with washi.

That's what I got and I love it. I def wanted the rosewood, so wheat was the only choice for me since black is not available w/ IP on the X-AWD model. I like the sophisticated/mature look of the wheat & wood combo.

For IP exterior:

1. Saw the wheat interior on the X, and it looks very classy with the rosewood. Only problem is the dark brown dash. That's what's scared me away from the wheat. It would look 100 times better with a black dash. If you're going Sport, this is a mute point as it is not available.

2. Graphite rocks and looks great. My previous TL was black on black, and I thought about going Stone to change things up a little. But once you see the graphite interior with washi trim, it looks very classy/luxurious and yet also sporty.

3. Really liked the stone with the two-tone contrast with the black dash. It looked good in the pictures, but when I saw it in person it just didn't pop out like the graphite. IMHO, it looked cheaper (not meant to offend any Stone owners out there, just my 2 cents ). I think putting in the graphite all-season mats makes it look better.

Graphite, definitely Graphite. Go for the Sport.
