Weird center stack in 08 200, climate controls instead of radio...

[studawg]

Anybody seen this in a 200 before? Mine has radio controls where that one has climate. The buttons on the side of the screen are different as well as a few other things. 11/07 production date....for sale in Florida

I may have.

Do you know if the 200 is equipped with a DVD player? The one I saw like this was not, IIRC.

It seems to have a weird combination of things. I found a pic from the rear inside and I think I see the DVD player up top, but it looks pretty big, as if it may be aftermarket. It has the headlight washers, which usually only comes with the Upgrade package I think, but doesn't have rear-heated seats and no "woodgrain" steering wheel.

 

[MScruiser]

Yup. That's what I thought.

This is the plain Jane base model. No dvd, leather steering wheel, non nav, and no cool box. Rare, but not THAT rare. I have seen half a dozen in the past year or so.

Yeah but as far as I know, headlight washers are only available with the Upgrade package and the only stand-alone options are Navigation and rear spoiler on the US 200 in that year. I guess somebody added an aftermarket Nav system, but the headlight washers are whats throwing me off. Also, when you run this VIN through TIS, it says "vehicle accessories not available at this time", so you can't see what it came with or without.

 

[studawg]

Nevermind, I figured it out, the vehicle came from Puerto Rico; and according to TIS it showed up in Japan for a warranty recall!

Very cool!

MScruiser - Even the non-nav models have the display screen in the US? If you see more please let me know as I am most interested in a base model.

I believe so, though I could be mistaken; it's been a while since I saw one.

I almost bought one in Miami (a green 2008) last year. It was pretty cool. The dealer was pricing it like a fully loaded model though, and would not come any lower on the price.
