Special Edition Coaches

Can anyone tell me what the "Special Edition" nomenclature means? I am particularly interested in the 93 U300 Special Edition.

From James Holder (My new best friend)

The SE (special edition) model was introduced in 1993 available as as a U-280 or a U-300 36 or 40 foot.
They had special exterior graphics, designer interiors with suede leather upholstery (usually), and walk-thru bath floor plans.
The coaches were no different mechanically. They just had a few more features and trinkets the make them an SE.
The graphics and floor plan being the most significant differences.
Probably the most unique was the 1992 silver anniversary edition.
It was the first 102" wide coach and also the first to feature the walk-thru bath.WTB floor plan.
It too had special graphics. Sliver and black.
It was a beautiful coach and was only offered in 1992 as a 40 foot U-300.

The most interesting trivia on the 92 Silver Anniversary model was the custom angled windows. Every other Foretravel coach made had vertical side windows. The Anniversary model windows were 'angled' forward. Never repeated. Really made the coach look neat. Hate to have to replace them! Every one would have to be custom made and fitted...
