What is the difference between a 1969 sport satellite and a 1969 gtx and is there any such thing as a 1969 sport satellite gtx?

There's the possibility that the Sport Satellite could have a 318 in it instead of the big block 383 or 440. I could be wrong, but I don't think any GTX's had 318's. Of course, the trim package would be different too. The GTX should have heavier torsion bars and suspension parts too. I'm 50 years old and have never heard of a Sport Satellite GTX. It's either one or the other. Im not sure completely on the Sport Satellite but, the Satelite I believe were all 383 cars with optional trans and rear end and the GTX came with 440 only, the trans and rear end where the options. Other than that it was trim packages and suspension differences. He's correct. It's either a Sport Satellite (SS) or a GTX, not both, but the SS came with a 318 also and the GTX came with the 440 and the 426 Hemi Just to confirm this answer...I am 49 yrs old and I owned a cherry 1969 Sport Satellite with a 318... (back in 1978). I sold it a few years later. It was gun metal blue and nicknamed "BC" (for "Boulevard Cruiser"). I was 18 yrs. old and it was my first car. I bought for $400.00 cash. I would love to find a mint GTX with a 426 Hemi. From '68 onwards the standard engine in a Sport satellite was the 318. The 383 became an option.

What is the difference between a Plymouth gtx and a roadrunner car?

The GTX appealed to a more upscale crowd, had upgraded trim and engine selections over the Road Runner, which appealed more to the budget-minded drag-racing crowd and was a much more stripped-down car by comparison.


What is the difference between the 1996 Sunfire GTX and SE models?

the gtx is a 2 door and sometimes convertable depending on the model, and the SE is just the normal 4 door, could be automatic or transmission pontiacs are weird like that.... My '96 SE is only a two door. There are also SE four doors. I understand that the GTX usually has the bigger engine and perhaps some suspension upgrades.

What is the difference between a Plymouth Roadrunner and a Plymouth GTX?

GTX comes with a hemi standard. Roadrunner does not. Actually the standard engine for the GTX was the 440-4bbl, the 426 HEMI was an option, throughout it's entire production run as a stand-alone model from 67-71'. The 440 6bbl was also available as an option in 70-71'. The GTX was considered the "Gentleman's muscle car" as it had a higher trim level and price tag. The Road Runner in those years was initially a bare-bones/big motor version of the GTX, 383HP being the standard engine in 68', the 426 Hemi and, from 69 1/2', the 440 6bbl were optional up until 71'. It was marketed toward a younger crowd. For 72-74', with the GTX discontinued as a stand-model, Road Runners ordered with the optional 440HP engine were called a "Road Runner GTX".
