You can option a GTS to the same as GT specs except for the retractable power mirrors.

Typically though they had cloth seats, cheaper sound system and sometimes no ABS or Power Steering.

Nope, GTs came in hard top too, and GTSs had leaky T-Tops as well ;)

My NZ SW20 used to collect water in the roof gutter, chill it, then vent it in a big gush, directly down the back of your neck.

Mine aw11 was a hard top....but water would leak through the roof/windscreen :P Murphys law dictated that it got especially bad if i was heading on a date, making it kinda awkward when I got out of the car with a wet crotch 8) :lol:

I've never had any problems with mine. The rubber is all good. I take good care of it to prevent it from perishing!
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

only difference a GT-S and GT can have (in a FULLY optioned GT-S) is the GT-S badge and retractable mirrors.
