How to check frame number - ripped?

ok guys, I'm currently having doubts if I havnt got ripped. I just purchased today a 90 Canadian base model (didnt knew that made base model in 90). It does not have GTU wheels nor S5 mirrors (taillights yes and matchig rubber color). The Vin number is matching for a 90 but I'm wondering if he could have exchange the Vin number from an other RX-7. Canadian's options are a pain thats why I'm so unsure. Is there any no fault trick to make sure it isnt some serie 4 with a S5 VIN?

Wow you finally got a car, neat. But I would also check the engine #'s, I belive that you can tell if it atleast has a S4 or S5 engine. I believe that the Vin is also in the front of the driver under the window. Also check out the door tags, they will have info about the car ans such stuff.
