GX is base model here, in FWD or AWD. In absolute base form you can get the 2.0 + stick shift.
GS is the next step up in FWD (no option packages) or AWD (2 option packages available)
Then there's GT which has only 1 option package.
I don't think many GX will sell. Meat and potatoes of sales will be base GS or GT. We waited 3 weeks for them to source our GS with the 2 option packages. Without the packages we could've had one in a matter of days - they were everywhere.
What's interesting is why only Canadian GS vs US Touring. Could be something with software related to slightly different hardware alignments between the two.
Woops! My bad
Maybe bulletin will eventually apply to US version as well (uhm)
