I have a 3LT and have zero regrets about it.
The only difference is a leather interior. If having a snappy interior is important to you, go for the 4LT as it would cost you as much or more to improve the interior yourself.
If not, the 3LT has everything the 4LT has. Save the money for something else.

Don't have 4LT, don't miss it.

I have both, an 07 3LT with Cashmere/Ebony and a 2010 4LT with Sienna/Ebony.
If the 4LT was available in 07 I probably would have got it then too.
I love the dash and door panels in the 4LT, however you still need to replace the shifter and e-brake boot since they still insist on installing that cheap PLEATHER from the factory.
I also like that the 4LT carpeting is Ebony. My 3LT has Cashmere carpet.
Go for the 4LT, you won't regret it.

I had the 3LT on my 2006, and my current 2008 coupes, decided to go all out on my 2010 GS vert and order the 4LT dark titanium/ebony option. If possible, see a 4LT interior in person as a comparison to the 3LT before you make the decision.

Yeah, that carpet is was pushing me the most. Thing is if I go with the 4LT I can now get the dark gray with ebony which will match my gray wheels. I love the tan so here I go again. I saw a ZR1 in yellow (mine is going to be yellow) and the tan was nice. The dark gray is nice as well. What ya think?

Also it is not even the entire dash....just some leather added...same w/ the doors right ?The 4LT is better than the 3LT, but for around $4000, I would expect more from GM. The damn boots are not even real leather....

I'm of the school that the Ebony/cashmere would look best. The ebony/dark gray is somewhat different from the all black, but not that much. Almost everybody has black in yellow, and I've seen the two-tone cashmere in the yellow and it looks absolutely terrific plus you don't see it every time you turn around.

i have the 1SB (which is 3LT since 06). Just fine for me, if the 4Lt was available in 05 I would have loved to have it.
