I'm impressed that the previous owner took the time and effort to paint the aftermarket air inlet box thing with the GS stripe.

Nice but I'm confused...is this GS 136 or GS 163? I was very close to purchasing GS 163 from the previous owner and it had Red guts...from your pics this GS doesn't appear to have a Red interior. Still very nice

You might be right Jeff, but the first pic Definately is not red. Maybe a seat cover. No biggie...Still a sweet ride! The GS emblem on the front bumper cover is new also.

Yes, that car sure looks like #163. The tell-tale sign for me is color matched door handles.

There were a lot of small details that I put into that car while I owned it. Maybe the OP can post some pics of the interior and engine bay.

Yes JP the details you put into GS163 made it one of the nicest GS's I've ever seen! I didn't notice the door handles earlier, but you are right. It was the op's conflict in the title and then the seats in the pics that drew my attention. Congrats to the new owner!
