Question What does SE stand for?

I've always wondered!

Sport Edition?
Special Edition?
Sucky Edition?
Slow Edition?
Super Edition?
Sexy Edition?

Slow Edition if you are next to a faster car..... Sport Edition if you are next to a slower car.

Question

So it's Special Edition? Isn't the SE the base model?

We always called them "Stripper Edition" because they are the base model with about nothing added.
However, some of them have been the fastest models we have driven in stock trim.

I think Mazdatrix has it right. My 86 base model I had was faster than my 88 GTU. I always thought it was because of the extra weight and the A/C and P/S and that was part of it but mostly it was the low compression on the rear rotor.
