It LOOKS like a GS, but the headlights under the headlight covers look strange and different.

I say its a civic with a GS conversion. The Headlights are Civic looking and the back is to small to be a GS.
Our GS has a small window after the big passanger window in the back seat, then the pillar, this car only looks like it has the pillar after the window. Also there is no side molding on this car.



Peace

Should be some European car. I thought Holden but I don't think that's it.
