Just because you can change the color CHOICES with coding, doesn't mean you can change the behavior of how the car actually works.

In other words, one is DATA and the other is SOFTWARE. When you "code" a car, all you are actually changing is identified storage locations (data) which the car's software reads in order to determine how it should behave.

If the car's software is not already designed to change the mood lighting according to its operating mode (eco, comfort, sport), you can't ADD that logic via "coding" the car.

You can change the data (parameters) used by the car's software by "coding", but you can't change the software itself.
