I've a 91 non-GL with the SVX engine, that looks similar to that one (right down to the Recaro front seats.) Except I've got the South African headlights (4 round). I could put the rails in for the center bench, but usually prefer the jump seat arrangement. It's darn fun to drive with the SVX engine, and a 2Wd would be lighter and so even more fun.
