Technically, Mazda did not import the Turbo II model officially as a 1987 model.&nbsp I have come across two "G" VIN Turbo II models myself, so I've seen it with my own eyes.&nbsp I've got a couple "G" VIN code Turbo II's on my registry.&nbsp If you run this VIN through almost any VIN database, the "G" code VIN will alway flag the car as being a 1986 Mazda model.

Turbos?
That is a great deal if you got a car with an FD engine.
