most if not all SE's came with cruise and I think almost all GS's had it also. My SE didnt come with seat warmers or ABS though.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Ha, sure, just wait. Give it time you'll get ideas and the urge for...more power!

My manual GS has cruise, so do many others I know. However I don't have A/C or a Sunroof. SE's in the US did not have the option for heated seats.

I'm in the same boat as whiteboyjim... my only power is power mirrors. I would call nothing else powerful.
The cruise is amaaazing. I would LOVE it. Lucky lucky...
and the "Mod Monkey" (as I have heard it called) will be on your back in no time :wink:
and may I suggest floor mats? They replace easier than carpet holes.
Now with Moderator power!

Love the comments folks!!! 18 yr old washed and waxed the car and I just had to get the photos - at his request....

1) No heated seats in the US and this car does not have ABS.
2) We've already talked about a KLZE...but no time or $$ right now...plus the darned 1.8 is lots of fun already, sounds very unique for the car, and shows absolutely no signs of giving up at 163,000 miles on the clock.
3) Floor mats - cruddy ones lost the grabbers on the carpet side so they slide around - removed for the picture. Any recommendations on correct aftermarket ones for the car?

Reading through ancient posts....has anyone figured out the number of SEs for good? The "10,000 but not sure if those are only in Canada" comments still seem to stand.....

That LX badge looks like a badge off a older MX6 or 626.

Definitely not a mx3 badge
