you had the crosslace rims in gold or silver which were a little diffent in design. you really have to look and see the differents. They had the torque stars in chrome or aluminum, you had newr style wheel covers, 3 blade rims like the ones you see on my signature and the 5 spoke rims. no other colors are on there accept for the optional colored gold crosslaces

3 blades


5 spoke rims


crosslaces gold and silver



torque stars


and the wheel covers

also when you first get in the car to start it up and as soon as you put the car in gear (reverse) the car locks on its own. Then when you get ready to park and turn the car off, the car unlocks on its own. I like that too!

The Bose isn't better then what was offered before, except maybe in that it works with CD-R'* etc better, and has a red display
the bose didnt have anything to do with the cds. its just an amp and the speakers that are bose. the radio is still a delco. some may except a recordable cd, some don't.

I like my locks to work when i push them
with the 96-99 you can program it not to lock in 30secs if you want. you cvan have them lock as soon as you hit the lock button. also, if you awant to keep it the way it is, just close the door and hit the lock button and they will lock on command with the lights flash and a honk from the horn and the click you hear from the gas tank locking, lol

I"ve never heard that setup in any SSE/i that was as good as the earlier gen. Both "premium" level speakers don't last long IMO.
