Don't take this the wrong way or anything, but care to post said email?

If you can, I'll send it to my dealership and see if they can confirm this. Hell I could even drive over to it on my lunch break. Its only 2 minutes away.

Hi Nathan,

Just got back from my FR-S training and I had a chance to ask about the FR-S seating. Their answer is yes, it will have the red stitching! if you have any other questions, you know how to reach me.

My Si had red stitching and my Genesis has a partial red interior. Ive actually really grown to like it.

If I had my choice, I would get a white FRS/BRZ with a full red interior. Seats, trim, door panels. Done.

I think some people are more worried about the bolsters because it sticks out more
Like what beneale says here

So let me do us all a favor. Can you confirm if the seats are going to look like this:

Or this:

That's exactly what I want to know. Which one will Canadain FR-S owners be getting???

So as beneale was trying to clarify, does that stitching include the red accent patches on the seat bolsters per the photo just above? Tx.

I called my dealer today. It has the red bolsters. Exact same as the US model.
