Well, it's either a 89 GTUS or TII. But, for some reason I remember the letter "L" in the Vin for TII's. I say TII.
Definitely 89 though. 8/89 is the crossover to 90 model point.

-Seth
90 TII

SonicRaT- S5 GTU's have 16's. My roomie has one...

Man, the answers are all over the place out there! Some of you know, and some of you need some more research!

If you don't get it with this picture, you must sign your title over to me, because you are not deserving of such a fine automobile...

BTW, this is a US-spec car, currently parked in FL.

And, yes, I'm still in Iceland...
