GT is added styling, bacically just the ground effects. yes they both have the 302 HO in it, and the GT is also approximately .3 of a second slower in the quarter mile than an LX. pretty interesting huh?

GT has a thicker front sway bar, has a rear sway bar, stiffer springs, and seats, a ground effects package, fog lights, turn down tails
