HUD is standard on SSE and SSEi. Sunroof isn't on all of them though. Call and ask.

The SLE and SSE are essentially the same, the post 95 have an L36, basically top of the line trim but with SE interior (optional leather and HUD) and no SC...

There are two bodies, and two main interiors/dash, SE and SSE.

SE - the SE body, and base interior. It cannot come with a HUD, but sunroofs are options. They can be found with Supercharged engines but it'* rare.

SLE (RPO) this has the SE stuff with nearly all available options. For a few months in 93 even with a special muffler. Mine is as loaded as SE'* come (except sunroofs).

SLE (Trim line) this is a full trim line that has it'* own badges. It uses the SSE style body, but it has an SE interior/dash. You can't get a HUD, but you get the sportier body, and most options. Smellbirds is an excellent example. We have yet to see an SLE SC.

SSE - This is a full trim line, it has HUD standard untill recently, moonroof is an option, the sporier SSE body, and the full SSE dash with all the electronics. Leather is standard, 12 way seats are, and they also have electronic climate control.

SSEi - a variant of the SSE, it has a supercharger, and performance shift, and traction control. It generally has nearly every option, without a moonroof they would be rare.

Don't forget that a supercharged SE or SSE will not get a boost gauge.

As you can see, by doing the right shopping, for the same price you can get one that is supercharged...
