Do we know if the wood inlay is real or faux wood? Faux wood has been getting better and better over the last few years so it's harder to tell with just photos.
Real wood. Ash.

Real, it's recovered wood (from what, I do not know).

That said, the images seem to shift between a more "Green" vibe and a more "Gray-Green" tint.

...this isn't helping me chose between the Black and this...

It is real Ash wood.

I read somewhere that RJ said they spent a lot of time perfecting the process for the wood to get the finish they were looking for.
It looks REALLY good.

I like the look of the Forest Edge interior components except the headliner. The vegan leather and wood look great. But the headliner color just seemed too yellow or something when I saw it in person yesterday. I can't exactly put my finger on it, but it just didn't sit well with me.

I posted this in another thread, but it needs to be included here.

I wish they would use this wood trim with OC.

I am really hoping that once they ramp up production they would make the interior fully customizable. Mix match the leather, trim and headliner. I would even pay a small extra fee for this option.

Dude, I already am severely suffering from analysis paralysis with all these beautiful interior and exterior color choices. Are you trying to completely incapacitate me with uncertainty with the possibility of *more* choices?!

If its real wood could you just put a little wood stain on there and get the color you desire pretty easily? obviously it would be nice if you had a test dash to try different stains on but it you really want more of an oak look to the wood its not impossible.

Question is, how easy would it be to take out the wood trim. But if it's is then, yeah I would definitely stain that trim a but darker, to give a bit more contrast for OC.

LG+FE or RB+OC. These are hard first-world dilemmas

I'd love that same wood in the black interior. All of the black is a bit more than I want, but all black with that rich wood would leave me a happy camper.

Right now I am with FG + OC

But if it's fully configurable, my ideal interior would be
FG + FE/BF Wood Trim + OC Leather + OC Headliner

I thought the green was much better than I thought it would be, as it was fairly light and didn't seem to clash with anything else.

The wood on the green is my favorite wood of the 3 interiors.
I loved that compass yellow with fe that was at the event. If I wasn't going Launch Green i would def be yellow+fe.

100% a green on the wood in the FE.

Some of the reviews made it seem like the FE looks more gray in person but with a green undertone. There was also a nugget I saw in that video that they almost disallowed yellow with FE and apparently RJ was asking who ordered this for the demo vehicle.
