and I confirmed finally that the SE has "sport tuned rear springs and shocks".

I am kinda surprised that most people don't know what they have in their cars?! Do people buy cars without reading the manual throughly?

know your car before you buy it

Really...I compared standard equipment and add-ons across the model line up, from GXE to SE/AE and GLE. I wanted to know every little difference I was getting for the money.

Then, when you do that, you recognize the huge margins that must be built into the add-ons ($800 for a Bose stereo upgrade? Sad...you could buy an entire home theatre system for that much).

Anyway...read your manual and sales brochure...you'll be surprised at what you find.

I knew it had firmer suspension... I didn't really care at the time what exact pieces were firmer.

You must have the one-of-a-kind version owners manual which states what parts of the suspension is firmer for the SE. Can you also tell me from that awesome manual how long each power window switch is? PunkDork says he got that from the Nissan site not the manual.

My brochure also shows:

stiffer shocks and bushings, larger front sway bar
