GN = black
T-type = various colors, and other options |

Technically, every GN (WE2) includes the T-Type (W11) package. See http://www.gnttype.org/numbers/rpo.html
Beyond that, a GN includes different wheels, rear spoiler, different seat material pattern/color and interior color scheme, different badges, a different dash plate, black paint, black bumpers, and a generally higher price. No mechanical differences.

I neglected to mention the '87 oddities because the question was '86 specific.
FWIW, in '87 you could even order a base V6 "T", though who knows why you would have. I'm sure a few do exist, however.

Base T-TYPES are usually lighter depending on the options!

And just because a T-Type has a rear spoiler doesn't make it a fake. 1984-1986 T-Types could come with the WH1 Designer Series package which did include a factory rear spoiler. A lot of these cars have been repainted different colors, but should always have the WH1 on the RPO sticker. They were originally Black/Silver/Black.
