compliance plate
 

tyring to figure out the model by the plate, reads GM8GKED with option EL, what does all this translate to? I've found most of it but haven't been able to find what the M or the K stands for? any ideas?

you sure its GM8 ?
not GC8 or GF8 ?

I started a thread like this before. Can't find it anymore. But from what I remembered. GC8 = sedan
GM8 = coupe
GF8 = wagon

as for the K I have no idea

hope this helps
