Great choice, love that 3LT Kalahari. Hope you're in a climate where you can drive it now instead of storing it and got a great deal.

The dash on a 2014 had full Kalahari on top. I does look like cyber gray though. Can't see front cameras so 2015?

Look at the door panels and the shift **** top. It's a 6 speed 2014. Kalahari dash does stop short of the windshield:

Enjoy man! I loved my Cyber Gray, sadly it got hit, so I ordered a Torch Red 2015 as I didn't like all the brown in Shark Gray.

You will love the Stingray, best of luck with it!

That would be a 7 speed, my Cyber Grey 2014, is almost the same, but I chose the brownstone interior.

It's an automatic so it would be a 6 speed.
