1) SE badging... if it doesn't have SE badges above the side turn signals (by the A pillar) I am skeptical, or concerned that there may have been body work.
2) Interior: wood grain dash + automatic climate control would be standard. and iirc, the acc is a bit more robust than the manual version in the normal cars, so not a bad thing to have.
as BlaaSaab pointed out, check the VIN (most definitive), but 1 + 2 are obvious tip-offs from the photos associated with the ad + should work for all model years... Some uniformed or stupidly weasel sellers mess up the descriptions of their cars. I once looked at an "SE" (no photos in the ad) that not only did not have the above features, but also had cloth seats (and a hood hammered by gravel from living in the country, nevermind the generally inadequate maintenance)... needless to say, I was not interested in the $2k premium the seller was insisting on vs a normal decent 9-3... I figure a well maintained SE is worth a little more for the acc + the better turbo...
