Special Edition 08 TL?

I was at a wreckers today that also has a used car lot. On there was a really nice shape 08. One thing that caught my eye was that the gauges were silver instead of usual black, and the interior had beige seats, and the lower doors were beige while the dash and upper portion inside the doors was black, usually I see only beige or only black. Just wondering if there was some other trim level or edition aside from the a spec package? Thanks!

I didn't get a pic, windows were tinted too dark for my camera to pick up the interior. Same interior as this car.

Seeing as it's very unlikely the factory came out with silver or white gauges, it's possible that there was just a lot of glare coming off of them. From the thumbnail I thought this car had the same gauges, but it's just glare from light

Sounds like a base TL to me. My 2008 had silver gauges and I know they had a beige/black seat combo.

This was in a time when solid interior colors were being phased out for black+ colored seats set up.
