There's a big difference between FACTORY options (your thread title) and DEALER options. I can almost guarantee that what you saw was a dealer modification.

Dealers can install whatever they want...from leather seats to big wheels to window tint to rubber floormats. Why? Because they make WAY more profit on those addons than anything else due to the extreme markup.

Are you sure it wasn't a FR-S trade-in and you were actually at a Ford or Dodge dealership.

QFT. Dealers love these things.

On a positive note, I didn't pay for my $699 exhaust or my $399 tint job.

I also paid less than MRSP and they had to restructure the deal because of PurePrice. Basically they shifted the amount of the MRSP discount over to my trade-in because they already agreed to the deal.
