internetman Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 Mine finally arrived yesterday! 2008 IS 350 Smoky Granite, Cashmere interior, Navigation and Mark Levinson. I really like the new cashmere interior with the dark carpet. I had a blast taking a leisurely drive through the canyons. With the twisty canyon roads and the beautiful fall colors I felt like I was in a car commercial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On '06 and '07 models Cashmere interior also had cashmere carpeting, which is harder to keep clean. I like that black carpet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
internetman Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 I haven't found anybody who knows for sure why some interiors have cashmere carpet and some have black carpet. My Lexus dealer said that it was a change Lexus made for 2008. But, I've heard from others who have a 2008 IS and cashmere carpets. Also, on the Lexus website in the interior photo gallery, there is a cashmere interior with cashmere carpet. But, the interior 360 view has a cashmere interior with black carpet. So, if anyone knows what determines the carpet color, I'm curious to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steffieweffie Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 i REALLY like that combination. In fact I wanted that cashmere interior combo with the smokey granite exterior but they don't offer it on the IS250. The cashmere/grey interior is offerred ont he sapphire blue but not smokey granite Any idea why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
