You should have your VIN somewhere on the sales contract or your proof of insurance. Type it in here and see what it says. If it is an SE it will say so.

Um, I'll say it again.
When you walked into the dealership, what car did you buy? I realize you said you were wanting a Genesis but they didn't have one and you were in a "hurry" to buy something. But the point is, you certainly had to know what you ended up with and what you paid. Unless mommy and daddy paid for it. Which would explain why you didn't do any homework, or worked at pricing and cutting a good deal, or looked very closely at the contract. Unless you're filthy rich (or it's not your money in the first place), buying a car is the second biggest purchase to buying a house, and so most people will pay attention to the specifics.....
So the point being is what did you work out as the cost of the car? Whatever you bought is what you bought. The VIN and the Monroney sticker is all that counts in the end. The salesperson could have written down 'SE' as a mistake, who knows. The buyer still has a certain responsibility. The real issue is did you knowingly pay for a base TSX or did you knowingly pay for the SE? That's all that really matters. But you clearly weren't too concerned about what you were buying in the first place. And the problem is, you don't have a clue what the final sales deal was since you don't even know the difference or the pricing structure of the TSX models.
Since you don't know the difference between the models anyway, let it go and enjoy your car. By the time you go into a dealership to buy your next car and with your own money, you'll be a lot more savvy and more cautious with your wallet.
I don't mean to be blunt, but come on let's get real here......

there's a thing called white balance gaiz... judging from the pic, they look to be cellphone pics. My phone takes pics of the cluster and make it look white too
also OP you got fucked over if this is true... your car doesn't even have the Aero kit on the front. Ill take it that you don't have the rest of the kit either

dude wtf?! SIMON has the white cluster tooo!!
It's growing on me, I might want this white cluster instead of the red one now. Can we order these somewhere? Or was it only a few that they messed up on the assembly line?

lol the pic of the front bumber rarely tells us anything, you can barely tell if there is the front corner add ons of the SE.
OP just take a pic of the rear of the car (bumper, trunk), problem solved!

hes already said his seats were all leather.
im pretty positive he doesnt have a legit SE at this point.
im just tryin to figure out what made him think he did aside from the salesman saying it is.
i mean... youd know the difference sitting in the lot.
esp if it was sittin next to another TSX
idk. the whole thing is just weird wether hes telling the truth or not.

he did show us a pic! of the front.
and yea my bad forgot that he told us his seats were leather.
at this point it seems pretty clear you DON'T have an SE...only thing now is how to approach the problem and fix it. seems like you bought from paragon...don't have much experience with the new car side of the paragon but overall they do not have a good rep. i know for one thing their service center sucks the big one. with my 09 tech, i brought my car in for some servicing and when i picked it back up, my navi disc was missing. the servicing had NOTHING to do with the navi or my trunk so there was no reason why they should've even went into my trunk to get to the navi disc. i got a replacement one in the end but still...wtf man.

I drove a car from my local dealer, while my CU2 was at the 3 year service.
It was a 2010 Honda Accord Executive (your TSX Tech), but the CU1, this car has 156 hp, not 201 hp as the CU2 and he has the white cluster. I wonder about the cluster too, but like it.
The fogs look like german Facelift Modell 2011.
I dont believe this car is a SE.
SE is almost the same as my Euro TypeS, but we have the V6 wheels.
And Joe, if you are man enough to open your speedo then you can have almost every cluster colour you like. Ther is only a blue or red vinyl (vinyl is not the correct word, but I hope you know what I mean) ring over the Leds. If you take out the vinyl than you have the white cluster, or buy a vinyl coluour you like.
I maybe try it out, but til now, I´m not man enough. LOL

In 7th grade our english teacher made us write "a lot" over the entire front and back of notebook paper if we ever turned in anything with "alot" on it.
I will never spell it "alot" again.

I wanna do the cluster mod really badly. I bet the actual numbers on the cluster are red LEDs though.

huh??
I always wanted a red cluster. If I did a cluster mod it would be red. As soon as hondo does it I will follow his lead.
