Need help- '95 Bonneville SE

So I'm looking to buy this '95 Bonneville SE.
http://bilasolur.is/CarDetails.aspx?bid ... &schpage=1

And when I looked on wikipedia it says there that the SE only has 205 hp.
But the car in the for sale ad says that it has 225hp (and that number is always correct on this website since it goes off the registration)

What engine does this car have?
Is it supercharged since it has 225 hp?

Thank you all in advance, I apologize if this sounds really obvious to you guys, I'm new to these cars.

hi, if its an se with original engine, it will have 205. the only sure way is to see the car and pop the hood and you will see the blower on top looking cool....

if you see the blower, its the supercharged engine and I believe the 95 is 225 as you say

just for giggles, call them and ask for the vin #. on my 2000 SSEi, the engine code is 1- 8th digit if I am correct
I am not sure if a 95 will have the same code- prob. not

In order to get the Supercharged engine on an SE it would have to have the H4U SLE package which would have included leather seats, my bet is this is not Supercharged. Also if I remember correctly the 95 SE would have had black trim around the top of the body moulding, not the chrome that this car has so I'm not even positive it's a 95... I am digging the Purple Pearl, though, same color as my 93.
