There was no Limited Edition TII marketed in the US. Your TII probably has wheels and a steering wheel from another car or an aftermarket manufacturer. If you post pictures, somebody on the forum may be able to identify them.

Reread what Mark said. Yes the AE was a limited edition but there was no Limited Edition model. Note the capitals.

Are you saying that your 10AE came with "Limited Edition" printed on the wheels and the steering wheel?

I let someone borrow my camera i'll try too get it back and take some pic. It seems kind of strange someone would change the steering wheel. I can see changing the rims. This is got me baffle.

there was a GT-Limited in Japan and Aus/NZ, but that was different than a Limited Edition.

why are you bumping??? You question has been answered... there is no factory Limited Edition. It is something that has been added on aftermarket.

If you want something more than that, post pictures and we will tell you the same thing.

have you looked on this forum for pictures of the stock rims? i know that there is a chart somewhere with the pic and wieght of each rim, same for the steering wheel. look for interior pics just to make sure that they actally are factory rims and wheel. It is possible that someone put different centercaps or somehow modified them but i don't know why they would do that with limited edition, but like everyone else said post some pics
