True Ws6

I'm new to T/A s and i am thinking of buying a Ws6. What is the most general, fool proof way to know a factory Ws6 from a Reg. T/a with pretty emblems and a ram air hood? all comments are appreciated, thankyou.

WU8, that is the RPO code for the WS6 (and SS). Inside the drivers door there should be a sticker with the RPO codes.

RPO code (WS6) is the easiest way to verify, and the hardest to forge.

Exhaust and suspension are a little different also, and easily overlooked by someone just slapping a hood and badge on a T/A to make a WS6 clone.
