how many different leather color are there?

i have a Glacier Pearl 2002 SE and i've always thought my interior was frost color. but after i paid more attention to it the other day it looked more tan color. but i've seen some glacier pearl 02-03 with darker color tan leather interior.

here's my interior...





see...first picture looks frost'ish but the others look tan'ish. is there darker tan color leather interiors? or is frost even available for white cars?

Frost is that grey color, Blonde is a tan color and just black. I wish my interior was black or frost, cuz I have blonde but it's cloth.

Your car is frost...the upper trim (doors and dash) is grey, not brown like it is in the 2002 blonde interiors...

The only thing is that I'm not too sure I'd want black leather down here...my seats are hot enough as it is, and I'm thinking about getting cloth! haha But while we're sharing our opinions, I think the frost leather looks the best

You haven't been caught with that tint? I thought VA cops were pretty brutal about that kind of stuff...I try to avoid parking my car in the sun anymore, so now my car just gets a bunch of sap and bird **** all over it from parking under trees, lol.

brownish? Mine are very brown...look around the shifter:



sorry for the crappy picture but i don't have very many interior pics.

If you're not 100% sure that the upper trim is brown, then you don't have blonde interior, because it is very obvious...

I know for sure the 2002 maximas with blonde interior had brown trim, but they switched it to a lighter color (tan) in 2003...the 4th gen also had the brown trim, but I'm not sure about the 5.0 gens.

ugh people....skylowmax, the only part that is lighter on yours is the upper trim, and that's because you have a 2003...they changed it that year. opanick has frost interior just like lowincash...

i think it's funny we have this much trouble deciding on the color. I just bought a used 2000 glacier pearl and I'm thinking about getting the seats recovered but I can't figure out what color it is either.

Glad I'm not the only one...
