the LS-special replaced the GS on years that the "GS" were not available. no difference other than one year its called the LS-special and then another year its called a "GS". same goes for the 94+ integras... GS = SE. however, the LS-special did come standard with leather... no choice. while the GS was an option up until 92-93 GS, then i think the leather became standard again. but either way. who gives a flying fuck. its still just a 13-16 yr old honda.
