gs = grand touring sedan
ls = luxury sedan
rx = recreational 4wd

I now think:

LS: Luxury Sedan
ES: Executive Sedan
IS: ??? Sedan
GS: Giugiaro Sedan

International doesn't sound quite right for the Luxe Sports market...

is there really a document or so for this anyway.....

if not, then i say it's more about speculation of what it means, rather than what it really means
