Saw 2 oddballs on Friday....
 
Running around town doing errands with Katie (pooky Jr.), and saw two Bon's. First one was for sale. Green 92 SSEi. Bubble butt, and bad wear showing on the leather. Not worth 3300 bucks US in my opinion, but I didn't pop the hood or check the miles.

2nd was a glimpse at first. Saw the car and could have sworn I saw SSE badges on it's way by, but it had SE tails. Car came through again (through the drivethru where we were eating), and confirmed. 94 or 95 SE (judging by the non-92/93 grille). SE front bumper, no ground effects, wide driving lights, SE rear bumper and tails, but all 3 SSE badges in the right locations.

So it's either a re-badged SE, or it was sandwiched in a wreck and SE parts installed to repair damage. This is possible considering how hard it is to find an SSE or SSEi at a wrecker.

A bubblebutt SE is rare enough, but an SSEi? I've only seen 2 in person.

I think all you need is a cheesy insurance company that won't spring for a proper replacement SSE (spoiler-equipped) trunk lid after a rear-end collision, and Bingo: a bubble-butt SSEi. I suspect you'll see _more_ of those rather than less as time goes by.

Sol has SE tails on his SSE. Not from factory though

Yeah, there are a couple Bonneville's around here with the SSE/SSEi emblems in all the correct paces. One is a Red one (1995'ish), one is white (same circa), and the other is a green one. One thing they all have in common besides the emblems are the wheels which are the polished face/dark insert crosslaces.
I could swear one of them had the dual turn-down tips coming from opposite ends of the rear bumper too.
I'll have to take a closer look next time I see them.
