Quick response please

Stone vs Graphite interior for a White G37 coupe.
People who have either or have had both, advantages, disadvantage, complaints.

Thank you.

My car is black with graphite interior, but I can tell you one thing that's annoying about the graphite in general. The graphite color is a very dark gray, almost black. However the headliner, A and B pillars, and seat belt fasteners of the graphite interior are beige. WTF? I don't like that aspect of the graphite interior. If you are going to make it 2 tone, why go dark gray and beige?

Loved my athens blue with stone interior g35 - I personally liked the stone interior, but either will look nice on an ivory pearl.

Graphite interior looks much better IMO. I had gray interior in my previous car and it got dirty very easily...hated it

Thats weird. My graphite interior definitely has a light gray headliner, not beige. Not bad but I'd prefer a black headliner....

Stone all the way! I was going to get Graphite interior for my white G but thought it might get hot as hell in the summer. That is the only reason I choose the Stone interior. Having lived with Stone for 6 weeks or so, I really like it. YMMV

black always. especially if your getting the sports package. the white stitching makes it a nice contrast on the seats.

I have the GS color and went with stone. I live in SW Florida so the light interior makes more sense, but the real reason was because I like light interiors.

+++ On this... WTF were they thinking??? OK the headliner is really just
visible inside... BUT those seat belt fasteners... First of all they suck period!
But to have them beige on Graphite interior is a major F up.
Wonder if there is any way to get the Vert belt mechanism retro'd into the coupe?

I like my stone interior, originally I was going with wheat interior but they didn't have any. I thought I wouldn't like the black dashboard but I was wrong. I love it!

Agree it's a PITA to keep it clean, that's why I always have a bottle of leather cleaner in the car
