Stone interior on 2011 G37

Can anyone comment on the carpet color of the stone interior? I'm not a big fan of light carpets so I'm leaning toward the graphite interior, but in some photos I've seen of the stone interior, the carpet looks fairly dark.

When you see it in person is it quite a bit lighter than the carpet in the graphite interior?

I have the stone interior in my 09 G37xS and don't know for sure what you wouold call the carpet color. I just bought a set of Weathertech floor liners for it and I went for the gray color ones as the black was to dark and the tan didn't match at all either.

I had stone on my sedan, and the carpets are just as light as the seats. However, I bought the OEM black carpets and it looked sweet. Really broke up the colors in the car.

That being said...I like my graphite now better. But dont' overlook the stone.

I have the stone interior....pretty but very hard to keep the carpets clean. Went with the gray oem rubber floor mats for the winter, but they really don't match well. If I had the choice again, I would go with graphite.

I ordered the stone interior.
I've ordered light interior colors on the last several cars I've owned. It's just a personal preference. Light interiors appear more roomy and user friendly, less cave like to me.
I'm fairly **** in keeping my cars looking showroom fresh.
The only thing I would change would be to a darker shade of floor mats.

Thanks for all the comments.
Good point about roomier appearance, but then again, I like caves.

So I guess the graphite interior makes it the ultimate "mobile man cave"

+1 - The dark mats make a big difference unless you want to clean the lighter ones all the time.

This. I have black floor mats & stone interior. I've actually grown to like stone.

I have the black w/stone and like it very much..... My last ride was black w/black and it was time for a change..... The stone offers a rich looking contrast to the black finsh.
Cheers
