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.

90 TII

SonicRaT- S5 GTU's have 16's. My roomie has one...
But my vote goes to TII, for some reason that's what I hope it is Any way, hope you enjoy your present!

it could be a s5 tII due to being in iceland and their screwed up VIN's, but if it's a US style vin, it's a GTUs

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...
