    Thanks for the input, guys. I didn't consider how light the misty gray would be. Since this car will have a cloth interior, I'm not so worried about the wear. I guess I'll change it back to Ribbon Blue with a Dark Grey Interior!

    My current car (an 8 year old VW Passat) has 111k miles and the leather still looks like the day it came into the showroom. My previous Camry with leather, however, did show some significant wear after the 4th year.

    Ahh. Yeah kids and light colour don't match.

    They're not :(. And yes, that'll be the first thing that I change too.

    Nice! It depends on the leather, eh? I've heard BMW Dakota leather wearing out quite quickly (one reason some rather save the money and take the leatherette even though it's fake)....

    I was looking at the packages available on the 2010. Looks like you can't get the solar roof and 17 inch tires. Is that correct?

    Correct. Will definitely not be combined as a factory package, but there is no structural reason preventing dealer or aftermarket wheel upgrades on the sunroof models.

    I've finalized my decision (check out my signature)! Now for the agonizing wait....
