It's only available on 2001s...

It has special wheels (17" 6-spoke, typical 4th gen, but a nice finish

yeah but someone knocked on my door when I was typing, so I hit "submit" before I finished my post

It has a DE-K, but it has the I30 DE-K, which is 227hp, 5 more than a standard 5th gen.

The standard SE rims are painted silver.. the AE rims are kinda polished, similar to the Titanium Edition rims.

Blacked out headlights, and carbon fiber SE tails. I, among many other people, really like the AE body kit.

AE is also used to describe blacked out headlights. If you bake your 4th gen lights open, and paint the edges of the insides black (not the actual reflector, just the plastic around it), it's called AE-style headlights. IMO they don't look that great on a 4th gen.

I got a question for you guys. I do not like much the headlights on my 98 GXE. Talking about stock ones. What could I do to make them better looking?
