Were the panels available in all trim levels and motors? Example, is there such a 2LT Panel with 2.4/auto and all the trimings? (i.e., fog lamps, a/c, roof rack, moon roof, premium stereo, etc?)

 

Yes and no. Depends on the year.

Example: The SS panel was only produced in 2009.
2011 panels were only available in LS versions.
There were no panels in 2006.

As far as the 2007-2010 panels, I believe they were available in the 3 trim levels of LS, 1LT, 2LT.

 

My 2008 2LT Panel has a 2.4 motor and pretty much all the options...leather interior, sun roof, spoiler, running boards, fog lamps, etc. etc. etc...

 

2008 1LTpanel 2.2 motor chrome appearance pkg. Running boards, fogs, no leather, rack, sunroof, or premium sound. Some are options selected I'm sure. All Panels really should've atleast come with heated rear view mirrors. It doesn't bother me but im sure its like driving blind to others. Don't think any of them had it, and yes I know there are Kits you can install.

 

I remember when I was looking for a panel in 2011, it was either my 08 2LT or a new 2011 Mocha Steel ( I've never seen another panel that color) But it was not available with the 2LT leather seats or the sunroof or the 18" wheels. I settled for my 08 2LT with 13000 miles for about $14,500. Actually I traded a 2003 T-bird w/25,000 miles even up for it. If I remember the 2011 panels were made in metallic black and a metallic red ,too...

 

I have a 2007 panel with 2.4 and automatic, 17" wheels and abs.
