Thats right, 2012 SE hatch. Looks like the old SL(regular bumpers, no fogs, no spoiler, SL 15s) is the new SE(Special Edition). I was at the dealership yesterday and saw it. 1st thing I noticed was the SE emblem. Has anyone else seen it?

Yep I have. I saw it about 2 months ago. Its a neat little package.

Yeah I saw it too when I was picking out my V.

So basically it's like an SL on an S?

Yes but it would have been a base model SL from 07-09. But the only difference is the leather wrapped steering wheel and audio controls and bluetooth belonged to the tech/conv package and that was about $2K more. So its like a $18K SL for about $16K but without the I-key. How I remember how cheap an SL could be..........lol I remember being able to get an SL for $15,500 out the door. Cant do that now, and a sunroof isnt even an option. I hope for 2013 it is.

They should've introduced it as an SE back in '07 instead of 2
SLs but yeah, it is a nice package for $16K.

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

Ya if only those prices existed here lol. Sounds like a good deal. Love the Bluetooth feature in mine, especially with the hands free law that's out.

They doing the same thing they doing with the Sentra and Altima. Slapping on a special edition badge. Upgrading the goodies some to get rid of the stock to bring in the newer models. Nissan did the same with the the b15 Sentra special edition and Altima special edition
