More confusion on Premier Trim from kbb.com
kbb.com has '07 options and prices listed so I went in to price my car and to see if their description of options would shed any light on exactly what the seats in the premier trim package would look like.
Here's how it's described on KBB:
(N/A Base Deluxe or Shelby GT500) (N/A w/California Special Pkg-54C or Pony Pkg-54P) (Req's Upgrade Pkg-18G, Seats-K & Radio-912 or 918) (Req's Black w/Parchment-C, Dove-D, Red-R or Chamois-4 Accents Interior Color) Includes Charcoal Leather Instrument Panel, Carpeting & Center Console Cover; Black Leather Surfaced Seat Trim w/Color Accents; Matching Color Accents on Door Trim Panel Inserts & Floor Mats; Aluminum Pedals & Bright Shift **** (Manual Trans) or Satin Aluminum Shifter (Auto Trans).
The things I noticed immediately:
1. Charcoal LEATHER instrument panel (nice!)
2. If I read it correctly, it looks like the console cover is also leather??
3. And what does "Black leather surfaced seat trim w/color accents" mean? To me it says "colored inserts" like we've seen in the Shelby pics, but that's not consistent with what Brad posted with the Chamois premier trim pic. I also didn't see anything in there about the bright shift boot trim ring that was in the Chamois pic.
4. Is the "Bright Shift ****" is any different than that which has been in the 05/06 cars?
Now for the strange part....I tried to configure a car like I have on order, i.e. Torch Red with Dk Charcoal premier trim, and KBB's options wouldn't let me do it. If you read the pasted desc above, Dk Charcoal isn't listed as an available color, but it is listed in the order guide and I have the Vehicle Order Confirmation from my dealer showing dark charcoal.

I think that is an older description, that is not what is described in the order guide. Here's what the order guide says:
"incl. wrapped & stitched IP brow and center console lid, upgraded door arm rests (w/ stitching), and aluminum pedal covers."
I doubt any of the parts are leather since even the leather seats are mostly vinyl (except for the seating surfaces). I had thought all along that the seats were going to be black with red inserts, but after seeing the order guide description and that pic of the chamois interior I'm convinced that Ford changed their minds and are now making the seats all one color. I guess I'll know for sure in about 6 weeks I'm hoping the stitching is color matched, that would be very cool

I would be so completely happy if you're right. Torch Red/Dark Charcoal with red stitching would be so great! But I highly doubt it'll be that way.

The darker IUP is supposed to be released at job 2 of the 2007 production, if I remember correctly from previous posts. I'm waiting on its availabiltiy before considering an order. Hopefully it can be ordered without the premium package, since I'm thinking about cloth.
