Us cars dont have smilies,they tend to have cruise we dont,they tend not to have headlight/intensive clean system,they tend not to have the in car headlight adjustment of the low beam,and i dont think the "sport" package was available there.
many early UK cars didnt have catalytic converters and o2 sensors and of course the main difference is LHD vs RHD

so they never got the sport model in the u.s? so that means they didnt get the sport kit?

Paul, is that the "special short wheelbase" model? ;)

Methinks your photo needs a photoshop aspect ratio correction. That's the first picture I've ever seen make an E34 look like a (albeit nice) E30. :D

Cheers,

p.s. I guess I'll just have to make do with my 'slug'...
