Ralliart also has smoked headlights (OZ is chrome), sideskirts and rear lip (OZ just has a front lip), more aggressive clutch, more aggressive gearing, and better front seats.
OZ has the same black headlights as the RA as well as the tails

Erk, you're correct, you've jogged my memory. They still aren't the same though. OZ headlights are blacked out, and the RA ones are smoked chrome. Hard to tell unless you look at them up close.

Ok this reminds of a funny story. It's a little off topic, but still kinda fits.

Shortly after I purchased my car I was fueling up at a gas station when this guy pulled up in like a 1988 pontiac bonneville. He was bumpin his stock stereo system so loudly that all you could hear was the bass distortion outside the car. As I was walking in to pay, he looks over at me and and goes "I almost bought an "OZ" rally (stated like the wizard of oz rather than oh-zee), but I bought this instead," as he motioned at his bonneville, "Real simple though buddy, fifteen-thousand dollars," pointing back at my car, "fifteen HUNDRED dollars," as he motioned back to his car.

I was too busy laughing on the inside (I almost laughed right to his face but instead just smiled and told him "nice car") to actually correct him on it being a Ralliart, as I don't think he would have cared anyway. Now whevever my friends are cruising with me and we see an OZ, they always say the same thing...." I almost bought an OZ rally...."

Same. I thought the OZ came with sideskirts only, and a different grill and alloys then the ES(06) the rest looks the same as an ES on the exeterior

While we are on this subject. What are all the interior differences between the ES, OZ and RA?
