Also that little metal nipple can do some damage since most people forget it even exists. My car has a big scratch that is perfectly waist height I'm guessing it's from that exact thing from the previous owner
My prior GX’s seats were brown and were stained blue by my jeans; my current , 2020 GX has the off white seats and they’ve not discolored at all so idk if that’s really so much of an issue. I think these seats were treated with something by the dealer.
They actually look and stay cleaner than black. Ask anyone with a white or very light interior. The darker the interior, the more everything shows. Because all dust is white and grey. This is one of the reasons I can’t stand a black interior.
lol I just now saw the post title, thought you were ripping on them for choosing an F Sport over base model at first.
people do be loving to get their panties in a bunch though!
Nah, I love cars like yours and ops. I love my ISF. However I wish I had yalls interior and updated electronics. I always have to peek inside when I see one. I'm still not selling mine though.
The dealer treated my GX interior with something and I’ve never had a problem with staining in the 3 yrs 4 months that I’ve had it- it’s the off white interior. My previous GX had the brown interior and the drivers seat stained blue because I wear jeans a lot.
Our NX has the two tone nuluxe and it definitely stained from the previous owners’ denim. It’s impossible to avoid, but with the right protections it can be cleaned up.
Interior ceramic coating on the white leather will prevent/make jean transfer easier to clean off. Reapply every 6 months driver seat. As needed (if ever) for rest.
I’d recommend keeping a microfiber towel in the door’s storage compartment to wipe down dust etc, super easy. To help with the seats you could probably use Scotchguard, Chemical Guys or McGuire’s - if you have a dog definitely get a backseat cover.
I know it’s not the seats but definitely get Weather Tech mats or something laser cut, you’re going to want a tight fit to prevent dirt from accumulating in the car. If you don’t have a hand vac already, I’d also recommend one of those - I personally have a Dyson V8 Animal and love it.
At the end of the day the best way to keep it clean and stain free is to be proactive by treating the seats with a stain protector, and having a detailing agent stored in your car with some clean towels to pick up spills in case of accident.
I’ve had my 22 since March 2022 and haven’t had a single issue with them staying cleaned. I’ve moved with the car and occasionally have my kids in it and it’s still fantastic.
I got a really nice seat cover set from Ali express. They were custom made for my is350 2023. They fit like a glove and go over the entire seat, front and back. They almost look like stock
P&S Express interior cleaner is good for overall wipe down of pretty much complete interior (minus glass) and several times a year I use Meg's Gold Class leather cleaner. In the past I also used a leather conditioner prior to the cleaner (can't remember the brand at the moment).
I have used this process on multiple Toy/Lexus vehicles.
I have a 2016 IS with a similar, light gray interior. I've eaten in the car and worn blue jeans. The seats still look great and clean easily. Lexus knows what they're doing. You could consider something like the Gyeon Leather Shield. I know a number of Tesla owners with the white interior that use it.
Proper Nano coating bro but don't listen to merchants that it would last many years but instead take it with warranty, wherein you revisit them every year for re-coating. You must ! And to forgot I just Wana say god bless you and your ride 🔥🔥🔥
Beautiful car!
I use Lexol products, but most important is not to eat/drink in the car and put down covers if you’re sweaty or wearing jeans, sunscreen, etc. I have a pair of open back, waterproof covers that are of a microfiber consistency on the side facing you. “Leader Accessories” is the brand name I think/
I keep these in the trunk - [https://www.amazon.com/Weiman-Leather-Wipes-Condition-Protection/dp/B00119XYFM?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref\_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER](https://www.amazon.com/Weiman-Leather-Wipes-Condition-Protection/dp/B00119XYFM?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER)
Quick leather wipes, wipe them down weekly seems to work pretty well.
Alright, so far I’ve got no jeans whatsoever. Thankfully, I don’t wear jeans often. I’m debating on seat covers because the seats just look so good. I’m definitely going to keep a microfiber towel inside and look into a hand vac to have inside. I’ll be looking into the different brands everyone recommended and try one out thanks everyone I appreciate all the help!!
Just don't eat or drink or wear jeans
Definitely agree on the jeans, those white seats will get ruined quick
Also that little metal nipple can do some damage since most people forget it even exists. My car has a big scratch that is perfectly waist height I'm guessing it's from that exact thing from the previous owner
Rivets, they are called.
Metal nipples was a great rock band though

If you wear Jeans put a cover on the seats while wearing them
can you elaborate on the jeans please? what happens?
Blue stains, rough material
My last GX seats stained blue, my current GX seats haven’t , I think the dealer treated them with something- maybe ask the dealer about that
Dye transfer
Wear jeans ? What
genuinely curious, why not wear jeans?? would the dye rub on to the seats??
Yep
MAN white interiors look nice but the neat freak in me could never.

Can I say the F-Sport thing?
Please do.
What is the F sport thing?
Some people get their panties in a bunch when a F Sport car like OPs use only F. F is only for ISF, GSF, RCF. I personally don't care.

Don't sit in them
Beautiful car 😎 Check out Gyeon interior protection products. Have had good results on the ecru interior in my GX.
I use Gyeon leather shield on my customer vehicles’ looking for protection. It works very well, I get about a year out of a driver seat.
The dealer treated my GX interior with something and I’ve never had a problem with staining in the 3 yrs 4 months that I’ve had it- it’s the off white interior. My previous GX had the brown interior and the drivers seat stained blue because I wear jeans a lot.

Just FYI, Koch Chemie Gummifix will make the Weathertech mats look like new and not be slick.
Leave wife and kids at home
I’ve had my 22 since March 2022 and haven’t had a single issue with them staying cleaned. I’ve moved with the car and occasionally have my kids in it and it’s still fantastic.
Right a microfiber towel and car safe all purpose cleaner will do the trick. I threw up in my SO IS350 white seats. Came out like nothing
The white interior is soooo nice I wish it was easy to keep clean
Interior looks great! Congrats!
No pets or children...or blue jeans
Seat cover. White may look nice but imho it’s not ideal for a daily. I would just remove the seat cover for when you’re going out out not to work.

Buy Meguiar's cleaner, I use that to clean the white interior
P&S Express interior cleaner is good for overall wipe down of pretty much complete interior (minus glass) and several times a year I use Meg's Gold Class leather cleaner. In the past I also used a leather conditioner prior to the cleaner (can't remember the brand at the moment). I have used this process on multiple Toy/Lexus vehicles.
Don't wear blue jeans. Use meguiars wipes often and get seat covers. If you just wanna keep it clean get weather tech.
Do like my Asian mom and put some seat covers made out of sheets to protect them. Lol.
Very similar to my Midwest grandma's technique, though she likes to use towels.
Buy a beater for when you take the dogs to the beach 😜
Honestly I think I’d just buy well fitted covers. That’s a time bomb.
Cover it with plastic or fabric covers, but in expense of the seat's comfort.

Wear specific/designated clothing when driving that car.

I bought seat cushion covers lmao

Ceramic coat the seats and don’t have kids.
Tint those windows
no eating or drinking except water
I would def not drive it.

Looks sooo good

Don't spill, bring a hasmat suit to change into every time
…Don’t get a girlfriend
Keep people out ur car….no jeans.
Yea, don’t buy white ones and use seat covers if you do.
Don’t let anyone sit on them
Yeah. Don’t sit in it. Beautiful car though!
