To be honest I think the PO had no idea this was a special edition. But even so, this is no way to treat a car, I am going to do my best to restore it.

I'm glad it's in good hands now. It would be more cost effective to just buy a car in working order. So it shows your dedication to go through the time and money to bring this car to the life it deserves.

I've looked around for a SE, they are usually in the 18-20k range, and even then you still have to pony up for IMS fix and have potential for other issues like AOS...I would rather do the work myself, knowing the work was done right.
