You forgot the s4 Sport.



Stiff suspension, Larger brakes, Sport Aero package, etc.

Most people don't know that exists. I loved that model... its lighter than a GXL, yet has all the upgrades you need except LSD.



I think the GTU (Revvin's for example) IS the sport and Mazda finally put a name on it in 88... or I'm wrong.

The sport was its own modle but could also be added as a package as far as I can remember. There was no SPORT in S5 so I guess the closest thing would be the GTU. SPORT indeed WAS the name for the modle. The GTU doesn't have the Aero package that the Sport does. This package made the Sport the most aerodynamic while the GTU has the larger wing designed for down force and not lower drag.
