You might get someone in the US to confirm this, but in the UK the non-sport models come with a colour-keyed headliner (i.e. same colour as seats). The Anthracite (dark grey) headliner is fitted to all sport models and cannot be deleted in favour of an alternate colour. Nor can the Anthracite headliner be specified for a non-sport model. I have been struggling with this issue for a couple of weeks now, so I have researched it fairly well. If you find out anything different I would like to hear, so please post.

The other item that has the same 'rules' is the exterior trim around the windows, again this is the situation in the UK but it does not seem to be any different in the US. On 3.0 non-sports the window trim is plain black, on 4.4 non-sports the window trim is chrome, on sports models (3.0 and 4.4) the window trim is gloss black. The only way to change this is to specify the Titanium Exterior Trim pack which changes the window trim (and other bits) to a painted silver finish.
