Does 2 tone seats mean the car has a combox?

I see a car online. It was produced at the end of 7/10 as a 2011 model. There are no pics yet but based on the interior config, is this car a 2011.5 because the seats are two colors? Therefore it has the combox?

No. If I was to sleuth-out the presence of combox in a 2011 from an online posting without alphanumeric option designations, I'd probably look for the combination of "auto start/stop" + "premium stereo" + "navigation".

You're right, it doesn't have it. The combox is listed as item S6VCA, which doesn't show for this car's vin.

combox is minor, you can always retrofit it and gain greater accessibility through a tethered iphone

I added combox. Mainly it's only cool for 3d maps and reading texts and emails on nav. I wish you would speak replies somehow.

you've go apples and oranges here.

combox is a Navigation add-on, gives you all sorts of stuff.

2 tone seats is a separate item, and not related to combox. This thing you wrote just says it's the Palladium Silver colored Novillo leather seats

Odd. My Jan 2010 car has 3D buildings on the maps, speaks emails, but doesn't have a combox.

The easiest way to confirm a combox car is to look for the option "USB Audio". Non-combox cars do not have USB Audio.
