Tan interior options

Hello All,
I am new to this group, looking at a W211. Just sold a modded c32 and loved it. Ideally, I am looking for a white car with tan interior. I have noticed that the 2003-2006 have a nice, cream color for the tan. All of the 2007-2009 that I see have a darker color. The dash, steering wheel and tops of the doors are almost brown, which is not for me. Are these my only an options within these years? Thanks in advance, Mike.

The 2003-2006 had a "Stone" interior which almost had a yellowish cast to the "tan" color. (Looked absolutely fabulous with the Pewter exterior.

The final 3 years had a cashmere interior, which looks great with white and black exteriors, but not so much with the 17 silver colors. In these years the remaining other 2 interior choices were Black or Ash (gray). The Stone interior had a very light color carpet which was tough to always have clean. After the color change, the floor carpeting was darker.
