*Chrome door handles
*17" Wheels
*FE2 Sus?
*Custom leather trim (not offered on other models)
*Grange boot spoiler
*No wood grain on dash silver finish
*Same headlights as monaro however with a silver finish instead of black(this is only on the last ls8 model i believe)

negative for FE2. suspension is auto levelling though
i think the major difference is colour coding paint including grill
leather interior with velour inserts
holden assist ($400?) rear-vision-mirror
international 250 made
international LS8 350 made?

also had SS rear seats. i just discovered the inside-boot boot release and the medi-kit hiding in a compartment behind the driver side rear seat. guage colour is blue, with silver outline. dials r white

Have a look over HERE (http://www.users.on.net/~nweber/holden/wh/index.html)

The Unofficial Commodore Archive has a very good run down on nearly all the Statesman variants.

BTW self levelling suspension was dropped on the series 2

the badge is hardly noticeable. it replaces the normal statesman badge with V8 and international under it. LS8's have the LS8 badges on the side (which some scum bag asshole stole off mine)
