SE limited question

I think this is refered to as the Shiro (sp?) edition. I read the faq's and it looks like the only difference in this and an SE is that it is white everywhere. Are there any other defining characteristics of this car? Different badges? Anything else that may be different than a normal SE. THe reason I ask is because my friend was at a shop today, and asked about an 88 Maxima that had been sitting there for a while....the guy said the lady never came to pick up here car.....this was three years ago!!! He said it was white and he thought that the grille was painted white as well. But the grass was so high he could not see the wheels....the guy says it has about 100K on it....I am going to check it out tomorrow but I was wondering if there is anything else I should be looking for to make sure it is infact a Shiro. Also how rare are these? It is an 88. And how much would a car like this in good condition with 100k be worth. Thanks....I am hoping I have found what I think I have

*edit* also do they have leather?, are they all five speed? and all have power sun roofs?

well my friend is not good at describing cars....it was white, though it looked like birds had craped on it for three years straight. The grille was chrome, the trunk was rusted and it was an automatic...I would consider it if I needed another car, but since I dont I think I will pass. If anyone knows anything/special features of a SE limited I would still like to hear them.

The Shiro Editions were all white, with black window trim (rest of the trim is white). They have a nubuck suede interior, and Shiro Edition badging inside. They also have clear turns, also. Can't remember more off the top of my head however.

Fairly rare. You'd have to be looking for a while to find them.

yeah I tried looking on autotrader.com and I could not find one in the U.S. with no mileage restriction....there were a bunch of white ones in CA but no shiro. And also I could not find one on ebay....I only found one shiro 300Z and that was it....maybe one day I am just hoping to find one from someone that has no clue what they have...hahahahha. If nothing else I would like to find some leather seats for it since I ride in it so much now that my other max is under the knife....and also the electric adjustment on my passengerside seat is broken.
