Do you mean the ceiling of the cargo area? Mine is like this too and I thought it was weird for a car in this price range. I have a 2013 too if that helps and maybe they added it for 2014?

Wow interesting to see how the trunk looks through the years. What is that metal piece there? Mine doesn't have that but it has a plastic handle.

That is the handle on the inside of the trunk 'lid' to aid in closing the trunk lid.

My 2013 GS 350 (Built October 2012) does not have trim all the way back under the rear deck - well back of where the trunk light is located (toward the front of the car or toward the backseat). You almost have to climb into the trunk to look that far back. You'd never know whether it had trim or not under normal conditions...unless you got drunk and or slept back there with a flashlight to explore around, or you were kidnapped and thrown in the trunk with a flashlight in your pocket (and didn't know to pull the emergency trunk release).

I'm gonna crawl inside my trunk and see if there is a trim all the way on the inside.
