The 10th Anniversary had the "hard" suspension, NO auto-adjusting suspension. ABS was an option, but most 10th's I've seen didn't have ABS.
I'm assuming you're trying to get a part for your car and they asked you that - what are you trying to get?
BTW, the auto-adjusting suspension was ONLY on the GXL's in the US. It was on the higher-end models in Japan.

All the CDN AE's I've seen had ABS.
And even my 87 TII had the AAS!
Different markets I guess...

Check to see if your car has ABS - that's the big factor. If you do, there will be a BIG pump with brake lines coming to/from it on the passenger side of the engine bay near the firewall.
If you have AAS, you will have a switch in the center console to pick between normal and sport suspension modes - I doubt that, though.
I highly recommend getting a new Mazda part as well - I've had bad luck with cheap rebuilt master cylinders.

Again, the ABS was an option with the 10th Anniversaries, but *most* I've seen didn't have it, but I do seem to remember seeing 10th Annies with it.

But my current 87 TII has the AAS system buttons with the normal and sport settings. I don't have the OEM suspension anymore though, so its disabled.
Anyways, you guys own AE's, so you're the experts!
