Need for Speed : SE? How different to NFS?

Aside from all the input over GP2, can someone briefly explain the difference
between NFS and NFS SE?

Please e-mail.

NFS SE has all the stuff that NFS has, plus:
-network play (up to 8 players at a time)
-native DOS and Win95 (!) executables
-improved game engine (tougher competition, bouncing view simulating springs
 when your car lands after a fly, tilting view when you drive fast in a
 corner, etc.)
-night/day driving
-two new tracks (but no new cars)
-loads of brand new musics (all are excellent!)
-in-game music (I mean, when You actually drive!)
-win the tournament the first time, and get the usual extra track (Lost
 Vegas) plus "mirror"-tracks of ALL the tracks (18 tracks altogether, if my
 math is right!)
-some other stuff I may have forgot about...

However, NFS SE
-is not compatible with NFS in a sense that the user-made tracks simply
 crash the game
-is not compatible with NFS regarding the save games and replays! (BAAAD!)
-seems to be slower (less frames per sec) than NFS under the same conditions
 on the same machine (altough the Win95 version is still pretty fast)

BTW, when You've finished toying around with NFS SE, get GP2. You won't
regret it. (But I still recommend You buying NFS SE for relaxation
purposes. ;)
