Insurance says i have turbo model.

hey everyone, i have a tii hood, side skirts, and rims. i thought it was just a gxl model cause it had 2+2 and all the luxury options. the motor is NA. but when i gave the vin # to the insurance company, it was shown as a
"turbo coupe" model. does this happen a lot? or is my car a tii without the tii motor?

that VIN is for a non-turbo with auto seat belts.

The 8th digit refers to the engine...

1= non turbo
2= Turbo
