Short answer is yes

All GPX and GPvR have mivec engines you will find some w@nkers trying to sell of GR's as GPX's to unsuspecting buyers
(example a friend thought he'd found a 99 GPX manual and went to look at it. seller was giving all the speil about the car till i showed up in my black one((mate had asked me to come take a look at it for him)) and he suddenly told my mate that it was actually a GR. he did this as the first thing i did when i arrived was went straight into the car and pulled the bonnet release, was actually funny seing his face and listening to him hurriedly telling my mate that it was a GR before i could get the bonnet up)

Anyway easiest way to tel is all GPX, GPvR will have the oil fill cap on left side of engine when facing in the GR /GX /GX Sports ect will have oil fill cap to the right when facing in.
