gonna go check out some TLX's today. hopefully test drive the 4cyl. what is everyones preferred interior color choice? my local dealership has quite a few with graystone tho i was able to find one with espresso my last visit but only peeked thro the window as they had already closed. the graystone seems almost white. anyone prefer that color?

 

Black all the way. Espresso is nice but i didnt like how it blended with the wood in the tlx. Wish there was some contrast between the two

I find the black to be a bit monochromatic and gloomy. It makes the interior too dark for my taste. I think the contrast of a light exterior over espresso is a really handsome colorway. Graystone is a sophisticated color and blends well with the black dash and silver garnish.

 

yea the bellanova white with espresso looks outstanding. also looking at graphite w/graystone. gonna see if i can drive one today. concerned about the lightness of the graystone and how quickly it could get dirty. also would it bother your eyes while driving being so bright

 

Espresso. I probably would've preferred black, but got a good deal on the espresso one. I liked all the colors of the interior anyways, so was looking for the best deal. The more I clean the interior of the car the more I like the Espresso color though, it's something different and I think goes with the wood trim the best

 

Mine is black also. Except, of course the headliner which is gray. I didn't even notice that until someone else mentioned it.

I don't like light colored interiors, maybe Expresso would "work" for me, but black is better. My favorite was my Firepepper red 2000 TL with black interior. Acure stopped doing red/black combo at least in the us. But seems it might be back in the '18s.

 

Black - just seemed to look more luxurious (at least with the white exterior) and better for longevity.

 

Espresso with black exterior. Just wish it was a little lighter. Overall really love it.

 

do u guys have the 2.4 or 3.5? test drove the 2.4 today. didnt get to really push it enough to test its power but i love how it rides. i drove one with graystone and didnt care much for the color. if i go with a tlx over a tl itll definitely be espresso. that color looks amazing.

 

What I think you meant to say was that the graystone could show dirt more than ebony over time. All interiors would get dirty at the same rate, it's just that the lighter colors would show it more.

Take a wet wipe or cleaning cloth to your black leather steering wheel. You might be amazed at how dirty it is, despite it looking and feeling just fine...

Most automobile leather have top coat finishers on them making them easy to clean and maintain. I wouldn't let the dirt visibility issue stop you from getting the color you want.

I have had a few white over black cars. For me, they look like they are part of a rental fleet...

 

Actually, Acura offers the 2017 TLX in San Marino Red over ebony or parchment.

 

Black Copper Pearl on Espresso. Beautiful combination for my eye and just love it. Graystone I can't stand, so did this to the RDX to create a "blue on black"...

 

Your dealership have lots of choices? What part of the country are yoyu in?

 

Have the grey stone since May of 15. It's still spotless.

 

Mine is cream and I really like the cockpit ambiance.

 

I have a black interior with the Obsidian Blue Pearl exterior. I really like that combo. Not that I had a choice on interior colour though, lol. I also like the Parchment interior. I feel Greystone is too light and would get smudges from my blue jeans that I'd be constantly cleaning.

 

Bellanova White Pearl with Expresso!!

 

Black on black.

 

White on black or White on Expresso are my favorite combinations. Black on Expressor or Black on Parchment are next.

My current ride is White on Parchment which is classy but I have to be on top if I want to keep the interior clean all the time.

 

Obsidian Blue Pearl on black interior. I have had a couple gray interiors but mostly black. I have two kids and I need something that won't show stuff as easily!

 

Bellanova White/Espresso; never ceases to attract positive responses from admirers
Actually, love the BMW/Anthracite Gray/red interior

 

Same , espresso was a must for my wife , so between white and black exterior we went with white , but I would have like to see espresso with other exterior color also.

 

I've seen black and espresso and it goes great as well.

I had chosen white for exterior because I had plans to wrap the beak black, looks good imo.

The only thing I wish is that the roof liner and the interior pillars were black, would make for a much nicer interior I would think.

 

My 2015 3.5 SH-AWD was SSM with Graystone leather, a combo which I loved. It looked very luxurious and provided a brighter overall interior than a typical black interior. I made sure I cleaned it regularly, but really didn't have any issues. When I moved to the 2.4, I switched to the Bellanova White with Espresso interior which, overall, I prefer as a combination. Lots of comments! I would say that one of the things I miss is having grey pillars and door trim vs the black I have now. Scuffs and seat belt marks were less noticeable. This car looks great in a lot of combinations!

 

Silver and black. I had a hard time finding a black interior. I wanted blac on black. Seems my dealership has a thing for greystone. I can't stand the greystone interior. I also think the espresso interior is very nice. I had a 2007 MDX black with a burgundy Brown interior. Very rare combination. I loved it. The salesman thought black with brown was a horrible combination. He was almost apologetic when he showed it to me. Black with brown Is a classic combination that comes and goes in the world of fashion and design.

 

I have to agree here. If in doubt, go for black

 

The greystone is, well, grey. Parchment is much closer to white than greystone.

 

Espresso. Looks elegant and really coordinates with the wood well (my wife is big on color matching lol). We loved the lighter interiors but based on experience were very concerned they would not wear well. The expresso gets that rich "club leather" lived in look. Coming up on two years and it still looks great -- although the leather was treated with a Cilajet preparation as part of getting the paint sealed with Cilajet, and that apparently keeps the leather moist.

 

Bellanova White/Espresso ROCKS!
Always wanted BMW Anthracite Gray/Red interior
maybe next generation Acura .................................................

 

I have the same combo. First car that I've had with so many compliments on the interior color.

 

GLM / Black. I like the espresso seats but after sitting in the car I felt it didnt flow well with the rest of the interior

 

Black. As a matter of fact, the three Accords that preceded my TLX all had black interiors as well.
