'87 SSE?
 
Have you ever seen one? I have never seen an '87 SSE. If someone has one, or has seen one and has pics, I want to see one.

I've seen a few at a junkyard, actually... Outside - just your average SSE, maybe a few minor differences. Inside - it's a lot more like my SE than any '88 - '91 SSE. It has a narrow centre console, no gain control & amp, the seats are a bit different too, as the controls that move the seats are on the seats themselves. The only thing that's by the arm rest are the controls for the seat back... umm. can't really think of a lot more differences than that

I didnt think SSE's started til 88

No SSE in '87, There really wasn't supposed to be an SE. Just Base and LE.

Correct. And I just learned from experience yesterday in Seattle that the 87 is a TOTALLY different animal when compared to the 88-91. Odd stuff.

yep, I notice all the differences between the years. It is very apparent from the 87 compared to the 88, and there are a few subtle differences from the 88 to the 89. However I have not seen a 90 or 91 close enough up to tell the differences. I know the VIN3 engine made quite a few things different, but I too know the 87 is almost not comparable to the 88-91.

for tnhe SSE in 88-89:

the mirrors are on an angle, the grille has 3 lines, the seating buttons are different (buttons in the middle console and on the side seats), premium sound is 8 speakers, and some more things i have to remeber... look at repinS car

for the 90-91:

The mirrors are more flat, there are 2 lines on the grille, 12 way seating started and all buttons are on middle console, 10 speakers premium sound, gain switch. Look at Merlin 91/97 car

I have the 12 ways in my 89. Yes, the premium sound has 8 speakers, but I also have the Gain control. SSE14U24ME has a '91 SSE, and her car has the same grille as I do.
