Go easy, I know what GT stands for, but what's the "S"?
Also, for those that know Hondas, what's Si stand for?
Thanks in advance for my decoding questions.

I hate to say it, but that cabron doesn't know what the hell he's saying, much less what the hell he's doing selling cars. Does he even know which car you were referring to? Most Toyota dealers and sales people don't know or can't tell you the difference between a Celica GT and GTS. Once a saleperson told me the difference was the body styling Ex. different spoiler, seats, and radio. I mean geeeeez the real differences are under the hood man.

Sorry for the rant.

No. A Toyota 4Runner comes in SR5 trim and it does come in auto, is not sporty and does not have and "R" engine in it.

how is having no power windows or power locks deluxe?

Camry2000

It is deluze because power windows and power locks were an option. You also have the option of a V6, if it is available. On the normal version, they are not even an option.

haha god damn this thread is funny, love the SI bashing, although i own a honda, glad i dont have an SI =-P

didn't corolas have sr5, but yea its weird to see it on the 4runners..

and as for the dx=deluxe, yea it's "deluxe" but it doesnt mean its good, had a dx tercel, ugh....

i used to think mr2=
Mid engine
Rear wheel drive
2 seater

but someone corrected me and it was some other weird wording..

PacFu

07-31-2002, 04:55 AM

alot of times the first letter is the body class, but there are the standard ones like le and gt

gt- grand touring
gt-s - grand touring sport
st - sport touring

like bmw's for instance, the first # is body class, next 2 are engine- eg. 325 3-series body with 2.5L, 750 7-series body with 5.0L etc

All Si stands for is Sequential Injection, which there is nothing special about that acronym saying that most imports have a fuel injection that is in sequences. Now GT-S, I have no freakin idea. Its a shame I know hella about Hondas :(
