Default Mazda 6 n00b question

Hey everybody, I'm currently driving a 2003 Saab 9-3 Linear and am looking to trade in for a Mazda. One that caught my eye is a 2007 model located at a dealer about an hour north of where I live. It is being advertised as having the Grand Touring package. I am skeptical because I was under the impression that the GT's have fog lights and this does not seem to have them. Perhaps someone a bit more knowledgeable can provide some insight, I just want to make sure I don't waste my time driving up there to see a car that is not what I'm looking for. Here is a link to the vehicle.

Thanks in advance!

Ok, but is it a grand touring or am I looking at a different package on this car?

Only the 03-05 have the fogs in the headlamps. 06-08, they were mounted down in the bumper.

For all the other BS features they are listing here (Adjustable 3-Point Reel Front Seat Belts On Driver Seat And Passenger Seat With Pre-Tensioners, 3-Point Reel Rear Seat Belts On Driver Side) I don't see anything about HIDs or LED tails, though it looks like an HID manual adjuster on the LS dashboard. Wouldn't the 6S GT come with those features too, Sheldon?

Well, LED taillamps were never an option on the 03-08 models. Only 09s have this as an option. I do not think that car is a GT model. GT models come with 18" wheels stock, that car has 17s. This one looks to be a 6S.

Why I asked.
I couldn't recall seeing any 6's w/LEDs but isn't it interesting that Mazda offers them for the 3 series GT trim level but not the 6S GT?
What about the HID's, Sheldon... or anyone?

6 owners get dicked from Mazda Rich. Even the new 6 does not get some of the stuff that the new 3 gets.
