I think that this type of thing, i.e. the pairing of luxury product makers with luxury car manufacturers, will become more common. It started with sound systems to some extent.

Incidentally, My favorite pair of shoes is a set of Rust colored suede Ferragamo boots.

LOL, I have a pair of those!!! Great taste my friend. Wait until after Christmas and you'll see that Nordstrom has a HUGE sale on the shoes that will be going for around $200. For something that is never on sale 1/2 off is gift.

I agree, cdoke. Lexus--in their seemingly unending marketing genius--have done this many times in the past. One of the notables is the RX300 Coach Edition. Although Coach bags aren't extremely high-end, they're about on par with the RX in their "class." I test drove it, as the wife was either thinking of getting an '03 RX300 Coach or an '04 RX330. Then I realized the Coach was exactly like her car but with a different grille and different wood trim. RX330 instead... and now we're getting rid of that, too.
