Yo,


It has the right rims, and unfortunately lots of GTUs have been violated with aftermarket sunroofs. But the "tilt" part...could be fishy. No tilt on GTUs, at least not on mine. It weighed like 2 grams, can't be havin' THAT sh*t! *snicker*

1989 GTUs "Seth, is it that dudes GTUs that showed up that night?"

Basically a TII w/ no turbo. It is a lightweight racing N/A. VERY few were produced.

RarestRX is right.

GTUs models didn't come with tilt. Its a GXL that someone converted.

Damn I wish I had 3500 bucks, that baby would be mine, ahh i need to use the money my my GXL anyway. I would like to have a GTUs though, just drop in a jspec TII and you would have one light turbo car.

I called him when the ad went up the first time, he claimed it was a GTUs Turbo, so I hung up on him.
