why do you think it'* a "gold edition". Pontiac has never offered a "Gold Edition" vehicle. Is there an aftermarket badge stuck on it somewhere that says "gold edition"?

It'* a dealer package used to sell the car quicker. GM had nothing to do with it. Most likely the rims came on the car, the dealer added the badges, and probably the pinstriping.

Yep, there'* one around town, a 93 SLE, white with gold rims, gold stripes, tan interior, and some weird gold plastic trim stuff inside the grooves in the cladding. Also has "Gold Edition" vinyls on the trunk and doors.
