The option was listed on the actual Mazda printout, if memory serves me

correctly.  That's why I asked - after working at a notoriously slimy Ford

dealership for a while (detailing cars), I am always a little skeptical.  I

can't remember if there was an extra charge involved or not.  I guess this

shows just how interested I was in a black 96 :)



This dealership has always treated me well, and I'm willing to give them the

benefit of the doubt.  I was just curious to know if it was an error in the

printout, or something which I hadn't heard of.
