By the 2007 model year Bonatti Gray was replaced with Stornoway Gray, and Atacama Sand, Tonga Green, Cairns Blue and Legano Teal had disappeared from the color lineup. This left eight exterior colors on the HSE and six colors on the Supercharged model, as follows:

Interior:
The Personal Telephone Integration System with BlueTooth ® technology to accommodate the owner’s mobile phone in a console cradle became standard on both models, as did one-touch window operation for the front passenger. A clock function was added to the driver's message center.

The Aspen seat and carpet colors had disappeared from the list of choices, but the Ivory seat/Ebony carpet combination was available on both models instead of just the Supercharged. Thus the seat and carpet color choices were reduced from five to three, as follows:

Ebony seats/Ebony carpet
Alpaca seats/Alpaca carpet
Ivory seats/Ebony carpet (Supercharged only).
