Dear Helen

Here's the update I promised on the new features and options available this year.
Interior Colors: Black, Tan, & Misty Gray
Exterior Colors: Polar White, Midnight Blue, Cherry Red, Forest Green.
Transmissions: Optional Manual 5-speed stick on Sport & Lux in place of the regular automatic transmission. N/A on Bon.
New floor shift automatic available Sport & Lux. N/A on Bon..
Both floor shifts require bucket seats on the Lux in place of standard bench. Bucket seats N/A on Bon.
Halogen Headlamps: Now optional on Bon (were n/a last year)

Oh... on the leather bucket seats - they're going to be available on the Sport and Lux. The samples we got from Milan on the 23rd will be the selections, (yum!) using the names we agreed on last week: Morrocco and Rawhide styles are available iwth Tan Interior only. Kidskin style is available for all interiors.

Thanks,
Susan Pantages
