I've got an 01 silver XC with graphite leather interior, and it came with the graphite plastic inserts instead of wood. Not as cool as the aluminium, but I prefer it over the wood. <P>I think the aluminium was a $400 CAD option, whereas I had the choice between graphite/wood, at the same cost.<P>{edited for spelling <IMG SRC="http://www.swedespeed.com/ubb/smile.gif">}<P>
