The rear end is different.

The options are different (check the stickies at the top).

The body is different (like all s5's).

The motor is different (like all s5's).

Less of them were made so it's more rare.

i would try to salvage the GTUs if that is possible, personally i would much rather have a GTUs over an 86 base.

i think the only thing wrong with the gtus is the engine cuz the owner blew a radiator hose and i think it went in the engine and screwed it up. maybe get replace the shortblock with another s5 then.
