91's also lowered the front seats for greater headroom.
92 up also got the new variable displacement AC compressor, so it no 
longer cycled. The AC compressor also cutout during WOT conditions. They 
also got keyless entry and the rear window shade was deleted. 92 also 
added a thermostatically controlled fan to an external trans cooler.

options not offered in US - electric rear window blind (all years)
                                       - side window blinds (all years)
