For those who thought the pure, unadorned lines of Opron's design were too plain, a variety of accessories were available.

Nearly 2,5 million GS and GSAs were built in France

The GS was used as the base for Bertone's Camargue coupé and the engine also powered the MEPX Formule Bleue racing cars which were created by Maurice Emile Pezous, Citroën concessionaire at Albi to allow youngsters to acquire racing skills. Originally powered by an Ami 8 engine in the MEPX1, this was judged to be insufficiently powerful and was replaced by the GS engine in the MEPX27 in 1971. The GS engine also powered the BFG motorcycle.

The 1 015cm3 engine was also fitted in an Ami 8 body to create the ultimate Q car - the Ami Super.

As previously mentioned, in 1977, the GS was given a gentle facelift - new rear lights, new grille and new dashboard.
