Default C6 carpet question

I'm looking at a 2010 GS Coupe with tan carpet in the seating area. The back area has stock looking dark gray carpet. Was that the stock configuration to not have tan carpet in the rear cargo area?

Thanks!

Our 13 GS is that way. Looks like black/dark gray in the hatch area.. The front is light tan...

I bought a Lloyd cashmere cargo mat to better match things up with the cashmere carpet in the front. Looks great!

In addition to looking better, the cashmere trunk mat eliminates that "black hole" effect in the trunk, where it's hard to find small or dark objects, especially at night.

I guess that's me, I wax it once per year. Washed it just a month ago, too.
And have put 81,000 miles on this one as a daily driver, road tripper, and autocrosser.
