2007 Type-S interior leather color questions

Perhaps someone who has witnessed the Type-S in person could comment here because I am really confused at this point.



I have three different and valid sources and but each one is giving me different info about leather colors in Type-S



First, on vtec.net there are press pictures of Type-S with tan only leather.

Second, acura.com websites shows only two options for leather both are two-tone – one is ebony/silver and the other one is taupe/ebony.

Third, 2007 TL brochure shows color options and lists taupe only as one choice and ebony/silver as the second choice.



What should I believe? I really like the pictures on vtec.net of Type-S with tan interior. I am not very excited about two-tone leather, some perhaps the taupe only color is avaible?



Whoever seen the Type-S in person, please comment on the interior. Thanks

The brochure says the Type S interior color combinations are ebony/silver and solid taupe.

The Acura website has ebony/silver and ebony/taupe.

I'm also unexcited about the two-tone leather, which is it?

Ok the choices are Black/silver or Taupe, I have the Taupe which is a almost a pale grey/ tan kind of reminds me of the Audis from a few years ago, I personally really like it

OK, so I CAN get monochromatic taupe seats, in spite of what the Acura website says? Great!

Fishing line has worked great for me with my experiences with de-badging. With a new car you wont even need a hair dryer.
