    Moved, try to pay attention to what section you post it.

    Special edition was wheels, roof rails, hood vents (working), and possibly some interior stuff as well IIRC.

    Is it blue? I'm not sure if there's a 'special edition', but there's the pace car replicas.It's medium gulf blue metallic, painted wheelS, decaling and I think there's a plaque inside.

    A Special Edition Package was added this year that could be applied to the GT and GTP models. This package adds the NASCAR-inspired rear spoiler and roof fences, hood-mounted heat extractors, and polished dual-outlet exhaust tips previously offered on the 2000 Pace Car Replica and also adds a two tone interior, 15-spoke chrome wheels, and the requisite badging.

    Thats for a 2001, only year it was offered.

    98 wasnt a special edition, it was a daytona.

    Thats exactly what they are. Are those a rare find? If so I'm thankful for the info cause I'm supposed to meet a guy from Craigslist tomorrow to trade for his stock aluminum gp wheels.

    You had the Gold Edition then. Keep the wheels dude, very rare. I've only seen 2 gold editions in my life lol.

    You probably have a gold pin stripe along the bottom of the car and around the bottom of the window. I've only seen them in black white and dark green. I think I remember a navy blue.

    Get some pictures up, I'd love to see it!!

    the wheels arent actually GOLD. they are just a gold tint. i think they make them look dirty and it caught me off guard when i first saw it. i wouldnt trade them away though. instead i would just store them and run a different set that you need to buy with the money in your wallet.
