Default Swaping the GT for a GTS

Well, I had the GT for all of 8 months and I'm trading it back to Wilhoit. He's finally found my dream car a 93 GTS in Amazon Green/ Cashmere 5-speed. This car has all books (stamped) a THICK stack of receipts, a factory phone option and supple leather. The car has 55k and looks amazing.
I really loved the GT and I believe it was one of the nicest 91's out there, but compared to a GTS and a rare color, its just not the same to me.
Anyone else have this color combo? I haven't seen it much, except for a S4 on Ebay that I drooled over once!

There was an Amazon Green GTS up here in the PacNW that just sold recently to a local guy, but I'm not sure of the interior color... It had GT cams in it and I believe some other mods...

ATB or Tom M. can verify this.

Hey Pewter, do you recommend Wilhoit? I have been looking for a really good 5sp GTS; a rare car, and I see Wilhoit has two in his inventory. Have you seen the red '94 up close? If so, what do you think? Do they know much about the car? Pictures look great.
Appreciate any thoughts.

I'll be there tomarrow and I'll give you the low down on any car you want. Yes I recommend him as does many others. His cars are very high quality, i'll check the 94 for you as well, and if this particular 93 Amazon Green is still available after I'm there i'll let you know as well.

Thanks Chuck, I actually pull the trigger on Tuesday if the car checks out ok.
Nicole thats the one #39.
I'm hoping this car has not been modified from stock, I know alot of members prefer mods, but I'm more of a purest in some ways. I love the mystic of the car and what it offered as it was designed.

Hi Jason, so you got the GTS bug huh? I remember you and I talking about the Willhoit cars. Glad Michael found you what you want and I hope the deal goes well for both of you. Are you trading him back the GT for the GTS? Congrats never the less!

I with you on that one! Things like wheels that are easily reversible are one thing. I'm in the process of undoing a HUGE stereo, UNGO alarm, remote start and aftermarket phone in the black 95. What a mess! Let us know how things go.
