STOCK interiors were two flavors: "Sport" or "luxury"

Sport is black, with different color 'panels'- grey, blue, red, and black. So an all black sport is possible.

Luxury came in all black or all caramel. The caramel is somewhat orange, not a low key tan. it was actually my first choice. All luxury seats have the vertical stitching. Sport seats have a distinctive curved stitch pattern.

generally speaking you could get wood or Ti (aluminum) trim. Sports usually came with metal, the luxury with wood.

Sun Shades were only available on Sport. Mine has all black sport with sun shades and wood trim.

There is a very nice silver 03 for sale in the FS section...

Good luck

PS You could also order custom "individual" interior and exteriors...
