S, GS, GSL, GSL-SE ...

S-models won't have a badge. since it's an '85, all the others should have a badge on the left side of the tail.
the GSL-SE will be fairly obvious ... 13B engine and 14 inch wheels.

if you're still unsure, then you'll have to tell us what features it has or doesn't have, and even then it may be hard to distinguish between GS (with options) and a GSL - if the badges are missing.

easyiest way to tell between a GS and GSL is the GS has manual windows, and the GSL has power windows.
