That is a T2, you can tell by the hood scoop. Unless some fucktard put a T2 scoop on a NA car.

I'd guess that they typed the VIN wrong. You might email them to double check it. If it's right, I'd stay faaar away from it.

Hmm, this car sounds REALLY fishy.

Maybe some rice boy got their hands on an NA and just wanted everyone to think it's a T2?

Definatly an NA, for several reasons, 4 lug wheels, automatic, no side skirts, and it's been repainted, as the turbo 2 stickers aren't there-(sounds like a perfect time to paint the hood and the mirrors). It's probibly a gxl someone spent lots of money to make it look like a turbo. All turbo's came with fog lights too right?

yeah definitely a non-turbo. 4lug wheels and it's been repainted because all the stickers are gone/painted over. so some fucktard got a hold of an automatic N/A and 'spiced it up' a bit. i'd rather throw rocks at my '90 convertible than waste money on a car like that, which has god only knows what done to it by the previous (and stupid....) owner..

P.S. that's just my $0.02

no it's a red body painted sunroof (unless the sky was red.... but idk - it could happen??)

the reflection off of it is the same color as the rest of the car, so i think it to be normal and body colored.

just what my eyes tell me, though.

Yeah, I took a second look at it and changed my mind. It would be nice if it did have one though, those things are worth some money.

it looks to be an SE someone just added the TII parts too, for asthetics, or whatever reason. There is no automatic turbo 2nd generation in the states, unless you made one. Or have a JDM car here.
