93 fd identification
 
i have a 93 fd.. how do i know if it is a r1 or touring it has a sunroof but no bose system. has a back wiper. is there some kind of identification

Arex7da 10-26-12 08:14 PM

its a touring

Gringo Grande 10-26-12 08:25 PM

Call Mazda USA with your VIN. That will solve it instead of guessing. Most likely it is a Touring but there have been rare cars where dealers/options were installed outside of the factory.

Not all cars were called touring, R1 R2 etc..... there was also PEP and PEG

RENESISFD 10-26-12 08:37 PM

^ But the car the OP is talking about is allegedly a 93 model year so those other trims do not apply.

The PEG and PEP were '94 and 95, so assuming he has the correct year i believe its a touring. Now his information he indicated seems more like its a '94 PEG.

Which leaves me with 3 questions:

1. Are you sure its a 93?
2. Does it have smooth or textured plastics?
3. Does it have leather seats?

If its textured, has no fog lights, and has leather, i believe its a 94 PEG

To do process of elimination, see if it has dual oil coolers. If it does then it is a R model.

If it is a 93 then someone might've took the Bose out.

Search much???
 
OP,

Gringo is right about calling Mazda to get your answer, but you can research some on your own.

10th digit of the VIN is the year code. P='93 R='94 S='95

If it's truly a 93, it's a Touring, minus Bose. If 94, a PEG.

jonnyb07 10-28-12 01:58 PM

10th digit is p. it has textured plastic.

Gringo Grande 10-28-12 03:15 PM

Call Mazda with your VIN. Solve it once and for all instead of having 20 people spinning you in different directions.

No 'R' models had a sunroof though....

I thought if it had a sun roof it was a touring model? or at least 99% chance it is.

Arex7da 10-28-12 08:13 PM

obviously the best way to find out is to just call mazda. But as i said, if it has textured plastic as you indicated and no bose with sunroof, its prolly a 94 PEG.
