Yep! I decided to buy it, Yes it is an SS-III, No it doesn't have Beams.

It had 74,480 Kms on the odometer when I took the keys today,

What's it got?
SS-III side skirts
Super Strut Suspension
Front & Rear Strut bars
3S-GE motor, Non VVT-i
16 Inch Factory Toyota wheels, 215/50R16
3 Spoke Steering Wheel
Auto A/C electronic climate control unit
Modern JDM tail lights
Modern JDM front bumper
Modern 3 Post spoiler

What it doesn't have?
Beams motor
White interior
Airbags
Front and rear splitters
red splash interior carpet (mines blue splash)
Sunroof frown.gif
extra knob on driver seat which remembers the driving position of the back rest

It's an amazing upgrade from the '95 SS-I so I'm going to post pictures in this thread and list the things I do to it in time. I got a few things in mind which I'll list later on.
