Question Lancer ES interior

HI everyone, i'm the newbie on the block with what will amount to a stupid question. According to Mitsubishi, the Rio Red paint code is only available with the Tan/Beige interior color code. According to the car in my driveway, i've got a Rio Red ES with a Gray interior... Anyone out there with a Red ES and a Gray interior, i just found this info and i'm kinda dumbfounded. As Mitsu states it, this combination does not exist, so i find myself wondering....Any with thoughts or input please feel free to post, they will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, i guess i hit the wrong forum when i posted, meant to post to US Lancer tech forum...rookie mistake.
i think i need a

i'm not saying it wouldn't be cool to have a one of a kind.....but it does freak me out a bit to think how this came to be.....i bought it as a demo, with 1000 miles on it and didnt' get the sticker, i'm going to request a copy of it from my dealer.

true, but It's so worth it to not have fake wood in the car, or that granny style look without the wing.
It's already been proven that for the cost difference you can't get back to the OZ status with an es, for the cost of the interior differences, rear sway bar, and the oz chronos wheels.

Personally i don't mind the "fake" wood, cuase it doesn't look like wood. Secondly, i like everything about the OZ except the rims, i want 17's, not 15's so they would go right off the car as soon as i had the money for new rims. The spoiler is an option for both the ES AND the OZ, it is not standard, so i could add it to my car at anytime for the same cost as putting one on the OZ. Finally, i would rather the car be a little more custom then teh factory puts out, and that costs $$$, so i might as well save it where i can and make it the car i want. Plus the $2000+ in savings now goes to my mustang for engine mods.....
