I think it's be cool to have a RS/Z28... or an RS/SS.. (even though, like I said, I was not a fan of the looks of the 4th Gen ground effects packages that were offered.

The "RS" name didn't come with it because it wasn't a "RS". The Y87 is just ground effects and a spoiler.

The Y3B package is the RS. It's the 3.8L 200HP engine with Z28 exhaust and black racing stripes down the length of the car. The "RS" badges are included as well. Some chick at my school has one of those. Most are red but I've also seen a black RS with silver striping around my area.

Y87 is "3800 Performance Package" which includes dual outlet exhaust, Z28 steering ratio, zexel-torsen limited slip differential, and 3.42 gears on the automatics.

W68 is the "Sport Appearance Package"

I stand corrected. I was pretty sure it wasn't just appearance but I wasn't sure.

I wonder if they added those in the Y3B package...
