Sports seats come with sports package.

Sport Package

• 19 x 9.0 Y Spoke (Style 211) light-alloy wheels, and 255/50R-19 run-flat all-season tires
• 10-way power front sport seats with 2-way manual thigh support adjustment, and memory system for driver's seat, steering wheel and outside mirrors
• 3-spoke power tilt/telescopic leather-wrapped multi function sport steering wheel
• Adaptive Drive: includes Active Roll Stabilization and Electronic Dampening Control
• Anthracite headliner
• Shadowline Trim

Thats very nice actually - light seats brighten up the interior, combined with dark carpets which are good for the wet winter weather in this neck of the woods - I do like the practicality aspect of that :)
