Some colors of the 2014 Souls (Kia website "Build your own") show options for a "Two-Tone Interior." What do they change to Gray versus what stays Black? And, does "Two-Tone" mean the same thing across all trim levels (Base/Plus/Exclaim)?? Thanks!

Thanks for the pic's. Is this your Silver Soul Plus, or stock photos from Autoguide.com? I notice that this is a leather interior. Presumably the color scheme in cloth would be similar? I really like this better than the 100% black interior. But, here in the Pacific Northwest, I'm not finding many two-tone interiors other than BASE trim levels.

Dash Ghosting?

Guest Question:

I may decide on black vs. grey two-tone interior on a 2014 Soul + (with ECO package) soon. White.

I like the two-tone, but how bad is the GHOSTING in the windshield at night?

I can not test drive one at night, does the light dash color reflect on the inside of the windshield?

One thing about black, there is minimal GHOSTING.

I test drove a 2014 Soul with the ECO Package, and the two-tone dash.
The Idle Stop & Go works well, seems invisible to the driver and is cool.
Any ECO Package feedback?

I was able to see all-black versus two-tone side-by-side this week. Two-tone is more interesting, but I noticed one other feature not obvious from all of the photos. The all-black interior has light-gray pillars and ceiling, while the two-tone has black pillars and black ceiling. I've never had a car with a black ceiling before. Seems a little claustrophobic. Anybody have opinions on this?

Can anyone who has a grey two-tone interior please report about the ghosting of the light colored dash board in the windshield at night?
How does it look under street lights?

The ECO Package is what I want. These are the 16 inch wheels on the ECO Package. Also available on base models.

Sorry for the thumbs, How do I post a full size photo from dropbox? ImageShack.us went over to a pay site so I lost many photos & links for forums.

I think "ghosting" (or glare) effect could happen with any colour, I would think its more with what you clean it with, a matte cleaner will cut down on most glare, you always get to some extent no matter what the dash finish is. If you tend to concentrate on that "ghosting" the more it will bother you, if you ignore it the less it will bother you and after a while you won't even realize its happening.

Bought our new 2014 Titanium Soul Plus this evening. Chose to go with the black interior – mostly because the two-tone replaces the gray “upper interior” with all-black. Also, after mulling over it for awhile, the two-tone was a little too “stripey” for us. Incredibly excited! Thanks for your advice on this forum!
