Eww, yuck. That is not my style at all. It looks like a hospital cafeteria or any industrial kitchen actually. Very cold. The interior reminds me very much of LivinLite trailers.
I do like that they're branching out a bit in terms of stylization. That I think is pretty cool. I just can't imagine that there are that many people who would pay a premium on a camper to match their tow vehicle. Strange marketing idea, IMO.
I would think there'd be more interest in stylizations that matched the camping environment or the interests of the buyers, like a log cabin look with rustic interior, or a sand dune/ocean look, a pet or animal theme or a Star Trek theme(ahem TM!!!). :P

I like the outside. Not sure about the interior.

I did the opposite,in that I bought a tow vehicle to color match my TM.

I got to see it in-person at an RV show in Denver. I thought it looked very classy, both inside and out.
The inside had some additional wall treatment that covered the metal walls, so that dressed it up quite a bit. The lights were discs, and mostly-recessed into the ceiling. I like the color scheme, and I like having the walls something other than off-white eggshell metal.
The only thing I didn't like was the leather dinette benches. When camping without electric, I think they would be uncomfortable. I would rather have the cloth benches.
The only info I did not get was the additional price for the model. I might pay an extra $500 for it, but not more. I am more into function, than form. (I'd also have paid extra for the cammo exterior, but that wasn't an option when I ordered mine.) To me, it is a classy upgrade.

It's a Sport. The sink is on that side. Do they not usually put the vents over there?

Even though it is a Sport, it is the same configuration as my 2417 Standard. Water heater is under the sink on the curb side.

Spiffy, but I would not pay for it. But some will and I like that TM is being innovative and expanding the line. Also will be great visibility to be on the cover of TL. I've always thought TM's was a bit under appreciated by the industry.
