    generally, the badges, roll bar, yellow and black leather seats, yellow dash cluster and hbd rims instead of the standard vx ss rims.

    i'm pretty sure but don't quote me, the dash cluster will have ss fifty on it
    Chev badges are an instant fail

    In the Hyndais case it's probably worth more than the original.
