I know what you are talking about, however that's the same online configurator that does not include the Gas Guzzler Tax and does not allow extended leather with 7KB option...

The online configurator is not a good reference for anything related to actual ordering.

A dealer decontenting standard equipment from a car is not something even worth mentioning. It is just not possible. What is possible -and there are a couple of examples in this forum alone- is sudden changes in production where cars are equipped with substitute equipment (HiFi replaced by Stereo systems, electronic replaced by manual AC controls, Combox replaced by MULF and such).

What apparently happened here is that standard equipment simply was not installed at all.
