the 08 White/Black /Terracotta with a Techart kit.... it's not an 09 car? or is that a black painted pcm (and air vents it seems)

PCM looks like a .1 (e.g. no “coin slot” in upper right corner and different buttons along the right side) and steering wheel is also a .1.

And what do you think an 09 should have as steering wheel ?

If you zoom in you can see the lower side of the 10 key for the phone.

It was actually ordered that way from the factory. I was surprised.

It's amazing how just simply painting the PCM and vents black can update the interior of the .1s and just make it flow better. All of those gray/silver elements always looked chintzy and clashy to me.

Painted PCM was a very expensive option and hence very rare. I thought about it too when ordering my car late 2006 but simply thought it was too much of a rip off..
In Europe it was €1428 extra.
This is a picture I saved beginning of 2007. Still love it and maybe one day I'll have my PCM painted in satin black.

i will do have my pcm + lower console painted black shortly - the door finishers, vents etc would be nice too but it doest bother me enough to remove all that as well.

it is a huge difference however - especially the pcm.

Thanks everyone. I think it may have a tune, but not sure what brand.
