Yes, it's the 550 Special Edition with the badge and lots of cool features. Special exhaust, wheel spacers, Carrera brakes, brown leather wrap interior with 'metallic' interior trim, special rims, lowered 10mm, and so on besides being fully loaded. $62,500 new in '04. I bought it in LA and drove it home in October.

I cleaned the throttle body super well, and replaced the vent tube when I did the separator.

It makes me laugh every time I start it because it turns over soo fast and starts soo quick.

It's an awesome car.
