If you mean me, there's no "almost" about it. It is absolutely, positively
original (unless the dealership stripped the factory carpeting out and
replaced it before I took delivery). Also, mine is loop pile.

Sorry to muddy the waters further. The box score is that mine is:
	
	* original carpet
	* single piece
	* loop pile

It might help if we tracked these things by manufacture date. Then we might
get a clue as to when the switch took place. My car was built in Sept '74.
