Who has tobacco interior?

Is the color what you thought it would be and would you recommend it? Any pictures? If not how would you describe it?

I ordered 3.0 with Tobacco interior and Platinum Bronze exterior. I saw Tobacco with white exterior on dealer showroom. I found it very appealing. I was concerned with the light color tone of Sand Beige - it might show soil, etc very easily. Bottom line, I wanted something other than black (after 4 balck interiors), and tobacco was the next most appealing color. Be VERY careful judging Tobacco from photos - I found it is impossible to get even close to a true color representation with digital camera. I have photos (flash and natural sunlight), but they do not portray the color. It is a very "rich" brown. The printed color in the "look book" is probably as close as you're going to get without finding one in stock somewhere. Dealers also have swatches of leather colors.

Don't give up until you see it! It's impressive.

I love the color tobacco but I'm having a had time warming up to the brown dash contrast. I'm looking forward to the Saddle Brown or tobacco brown with the black dash.
