Those were my thoughts when we bought it from the dealership, but the sales guy assured me I was wrong, he sold the car new to the original owner as well.
As for NZ I cannot find it anywhere on the build code.
In the picture you can see at the ride side it says 2.0 Special Edition. The interior code says BN4.
As for shutting down the thread, if a mod wants to wouldn't mind. I posted on here to sell, and I seem to be doing is defending the car. I enjoyed going to the meets from this web board, the members seemed nice. But right now I just don't understand the hostility. I'm not trying to rip anyone off. The price is fair, for around Calgary AB, even if the car was not a special edition.
