Default Newb to Volvo, Questions on Executive Model.

Hello. I bought my first Volvo today. A 2001 S-80 T6. According to the VIN it is an Exec, however Im still not completely sure if it is or not. How can I tell.

The car doesnt have the "Standard" Exec features like the "New for 2001, this model adds 2 more inches of legroom by pushing the rear seat farther back into the rear deck and by removing the folding seat mechanism. It also features wider rear door openings, heated rear seats, extra padding in the rear seat and bottom cushion, a multi-functional rear center armrest/console, an electric rear window sun shade, a small refrigerator, and a DVD player connected to a video screen mounted in the rear console"

So is the VIN wrong?

The DMV, insurance, carfax and all the online "Vin decoders" say its an Executive.

Since the first owner had it as a Corporate Fleet vehicle im thinking they just ordered it without certain amenities like the DVD and TV and refrigerator.
