You call them anything you want. "A Rose By Any Other Name Would Smell Just As Sweet" But T3 when called a Hannover Edition vs. a Wolfsburg Edition can mean the difference between an rare vehicle vs. a not so common vehicle. The difference in my end of the country can be double to triple the price of one over the other.

This practice of calling vehicles something other than what it is false advertising in it's basic form. It's a fairly good bet the ebay auction went so well for this Wolfsburg Edition vehicle because some bidders were mislead into thinking this was more rare than it really is (in the US).

Be forewarned that your doggies peeing on my wheels may be seeing bluestars and get blueballs from being to close to my Taser triggered by my Fraud Detector.
