Sand Leather interior anyone??

Found a "left over" '08 that is crystal white with the sand leather interior. Trouble is, its at a dealership that I can't just go to on a whim.. ( in other words its quite a long ways away)

does anyone have pictures of this interior and do you like it?

Also found a Black one with the same interior..

Any help/pictures/opinions would be helpful!

Thanks!

pete

Hmm, I'm not sure how the sand leather interior differs from the "Parchment leather" interior of my '05 Shinka, but I really love the interior I have. I'm not normally one for light colored leather, but it looks surprisingly nice and has grown on me. I'm afraid I don't have any pictures, so just anecdotal enjoyment here, but I don't think you will be disappointed.

Edit: Here is an image of the '05 Shinka leather which is "parchment"...

I like the beige interior. What concerns me are the eventual black marks everywhere. ... headrests, door area, side bolsters....

I have them, and its hard as hell to get them off.

They're hard as hell to clean. I spent 30 minutes and I only cleaned like maybe a quarter size of the dirt away, then I gave up.

Maybe I should use some household leather cleaner instead, the auto ones are kinda weak imo
