The only thing I can find, in print is that there is no "thru to trunk". But I also think Ripn is right. 3800 wasn't on that list either.
And there is a recall on the SE

Recall Date: OCT 21, 1999
Component: AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
Potential Units Affected: 111
Summary: VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG MODULES HAVE AN UNDERSIZED INFLATOR ORIFICE.
Consequence: IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH THAT WOULD TRIGGER A PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, THIS UNDERSIZED ORIFICE CAN CAUSE THE INFLATOR MODULE TO EXPLODE. IF AN AIR BAG INFLATOR MODULE EXPLODES, METAL AND/OR PLASTIC DEBRIS COULD CAUSE SEVERE INJURY TO THE VEHICLE OCCUPANT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG MODULES.
Notes: GENERAL MOTORS CORP., 99073

Don't know too much about SE's. Never had one.

Here's what I find about changes year to year;

Some of the typical things that make vehicles a different model type (i.e. SE vs. GT or LS vs. LT) are interior trim (leather/cloth), audio system, suspension, rims (vs. hub caps), sunroof, etc. I don't know a whole lot about Grand Prixs (not really my flavor) but I'm guesing the "SE" stands for Standard Edition and "GT" stands for Grand Touring. So the "SE" would be like an "LS" (Luxury Standard) on Chevrolet SUVs and the "GT" would be like the "LT" version. Just my guess

Wondering, 90210 is CA. You list home as Florida.

I got rid of my STS because it cost a ton to keep it going. Went to GP's. Easier on the pocket.
