With 6,000 miles, here it is:

2) put in a few tanks of gas

IIRC, the 40th anniv had virtually all the options available for it standard, and there were only had a few you could choose after that. Like upgraded seats, nav and rear wiper, maybe a couple others, but all the bigs ones were already standard. I'm probably wrong on this, but my mind remembered it that way

I know it's not listed in the model guide but wasn't PSE an option too? Service history will be a problem unless you find the dealer who actually performed the service. My dealer says he could only search for service done by them. Maybe someone at PCNA has access. Open recalls, etc. can be accessed by any dealer. Let us know what you find out.

I thought that PSE was standard. Anyone?

PSE was either not standard or the techs just forgot to put it on my car...

Most magazine articles, at the time, say they did some "tweeks" to the exhaust and intake but it's not PSE. I've read some articles that say PSE was standard equipment but I'm thinking that may be on the ROW cars... Can I get some help from my overseas 40th brethren?

I'm fairly certain that PSE was not standard. LiveNupe could probably tell you since he's the 1st owner on his car...

My 40th doesn't have PSE. It was an option. It is the only mod that I am considering!

I've been out of the loop and I'm just reading this thread for the first time.... lot's of activity. At any rate, to confirm rat9545's post, PSE wasn't standard.

Only exhaust "tweeks" I've been able to determine is the X51 headers...unless of course you have the PSE option.

Wow, all of these data points are starting to make me think my car is priced too low at $36k.

Here's an old article I found on the internet. It looks like a ROW car and they mention that PSE was standard. I'm still guessing that it might have been standard on the ROW cars...

I still haven't figured out why your car has not sold. Sent you a PM.
