10th aniversary question

Ok I have a white 88 TII with all black interior cloth black seats etc. I remember seeing somewhere that the 10 aniversaries are the only S4's with black interior right? Then someone else told me all 10 aniversaries had leather interior. So I am completely confused lol. So if it is a white 88 TII with black cloth interior it can still be a 10 aniversary right? Lol stupid question I know but I just was wondering.

Umm, yes, the seats were likely re-covered or swapped from a different FC, or even a diffrerent car altogether. If your car is truly a 10th AE, then it should have the little badges on the fenders, the imprint on the center of the steering wheel, and white painted trim/ tail light surrounds.

Post some pics if you can. (photobucket.com)

Well the fenders were replaced but I was told from the owner that owned the car before the owner I got the car from that the old fenders had the 10th aniversary badges and he would give them to me because he still has them. Also it has S5 tailights on it, I didnt notice anything on the steering wheel, and the seasts are most definitely black fc seats.

The glass on 10th AE cars are also tinted a bronze color.

vin # is the easiest way to tell. the key (unless THATS aftermarket too) is also a special type with 10th ae symble.
my 10th ae has cloth seats, but they are from my 91 gxl, and are inpectable condition. i replaced them myself.
also if you have another rx-7 to compare it to, check the shift **** and shift boot, should not have a clear plastic peice rather a solid **** with the "h" ingraved.

sorry bout the underlines and bolds, i just found out cntl+u and ctrl+b are frickin sweet.

Well the car doesnt have the stock shift boot and has a white greddy shift ****, and the headlight plastics are missing and yes it has an aftermarket key lmao. How can you tell by the vin because at this point I think that is my only hope.

So pretty much it had EVERYTHING that identified it as a 10th AE swapped or replaced? Damn... this is turning out to be fishy as hell, yo!
