I have been car shopping for over 3 months and my local dealer has never got in a camry le that is white exterior/black interior like I would prefer. They have white exterior/ash interior. I have looked at all nearby dealerships online and none of the black interior come with all weather mats which I prefer but my local dealership ash interior all have all weather mats. So I am thinking of giving in and just going with the ash interior...is my worry about the ash showing imperfections/marks/scuffs not a big deal? TIA!

I was in the same boat as you, but settled with Ash int/Black ext. I'm glad I chose the Ash - I appreciate the lighter interior and would choose again. Wife's car has black interior, and it seems so dark inside. I have kids who insist on stepping on the door sills, and putting their feet on the back of the seats - but they clean up well.

If floormats are your hang up though - check eBay. Plenty of factory OEM sets on there - you could buy and sell yours. I'd actually like a set of the carpet mats for the summer months, but really appreciate the rubbers in winter.

I have the ash interior and like others have said, it'll become darker especially the driver side. Clean it with a leather cleaner or just use 303 aerospace spray. You can also get a leather brush if you want. The black seats do the same but its less noticable than the ash interior.
I'm happy with mine. My driver seat is darker than the other seats but.... thats just the nature of the beast.
