Default 2lt question

I just got a torch Red 2LT WITH THE RED INTERIOR. It has the red seats console and door panels. The pictures I see also have the red across the top of the speedo area and above the glove box. Why doesn't mine?

Those pictures are of a 3LT trim level.

For a lot less then the cost of the 3lt you can go to a upholstery shop and have a really custom application. I was talking to a local shop who was going to do the entire dash for not a whole lot of money. When I saw the red stitching I liked that more then spending the money and decided to keep it stock.

Doing the passenger side and the halo is not the difficult for a quality shop, and you will have the 3lt you want.

I was just checking to make sure I got what I was supposed to have. I like it without it.

I can see asking this question before you buy, but shouldn't you know this stuff if paying this much for anything?

Steve one would think that but........ For me I got a deal out of the blue..... had not done any research....... got a great discount and actually ordered the car standing on a tee box on a Tuesday trying to make some order deadline that night. Car was not exactly what I wanted in review but good enough. I was caught off guard by the deal and had to move quick but sometimes you have to make a decision and move forward w/o having time to do the proper research.
