There's too much RS in that car to be a lesser model converted with RS bits. I have the '07 brochure and it is not quite the same as '08.
The mirrors however are supposed to be body colour regardless of whatever option package the car was delivered with. Body colour mirrors is achieved by snapping coloured caps over base black mirrors is it not? Could be a factory oversight, or caps have been removed.

Yeah, I'm thinking it's an RS. I can't imagine someone going to the trouble. Even if someone was flipping it, it wouldn't be worth the effort. I suppose you could replace all those parts, but the 'definitive proof' for me was the side skirt pin holes in the rocker area.
