Yeah that was what i was thinking. This is the car that is for sale. And the rims are the only thing holding me off cause they look like the SE rims and dont have the same haze the TE rims do. It is the TE because he provided pictures of the door sills. Anything else that can seperate a regular SE from TE? I know the stitching but anything else?

I am not the one selling i might be the one buying!

Those are TE's, I double checked mine in my garage and those definitely are TE rims. You know picture resolution and quality is greatly diminished whenever you're viewing something on the net no matter what the picture is.

This car is listed as a GLE but it is a SE. Those look like TE rims correct?

TE rims aren't polished, they're painted, hence the TSB.

Damn fancy paint, too.
