Definitive method to determine TRIM level?
I just drove back from California with my 2006 Interlagos Fire Roadster.
I *thought* it was a Touring trim. The dealer's used car sticker said - "Enthusiast". It has heated leather seats, 7-speaker Bose w/subwoofer. Those are two options I wanted, so it didn't matter that much.
I would like to know which trim it is, because of the non-obvious. Is it pre-wired for satellite radio? That was apparently done for the Touring/Grand Touring trims.
It does not have 19" rear wheels, so I think that rules out the Grand Touring possibility.
The door jam plate has Trim = G
I have been unable to find the cross-reference for the code.
Anyone have a definitive answer for me?
Thanks!

Does not have Brembos. That is assuming that they are yellow in color and/or labeled "Brembo" as I've seen on earlier models.
So that means I have a "Touring".
If someone had the definitive code list for the Trim, I'd know without doubt.
I could still have an Enthusiast with options.
Anyone got the code list??

I have a 04.5 roadster with bose and leather heated seats. It also has 18" wheels. I bought it use so I don't why all the extra options. It does seem odd. The way I figured out that it was an enthusiast was that it had TCS and not VDC which is standard on the touring model. Loook for the switch below and to the left of the steering wheel if it says VDC you have a touring model, if it says TCS you have an enthusiast. Either way you have a great car. Enjoy!!

Mystery Solved
It's an enthusiast. Dammit - I wanted to easily install satellite radio with the existing radio. Besides that - I'm happy. The only thing missing that i wanted is the pre-wiring of the Touring. Not sure why the original owner spent $36k for the enthusiast with the options, and not $37k for the touring... doesn't make any sense to me. Oh well.. thanks for the responses!!

^^ Hold on. It may yet be a Touring.
I just bought mine in Orlando this morning. It came with the original window sticker. As you can see, it does not come with VDC on a button left of the steering wheel. Mine is a touring and it has TCS.

Leather seats? Bose? Sounds like a Touring model to me...
