1990 car has gtus badge and doesn't have a rear wiper. I'm guessing this would mean its a gtus...right? but the info that I got in the vin check is different, which has me worried.

maybe the "/glx" is the notation used for the GTUs to destinguish it from the GTU? Just a thought.

No, that has nothing to do with the GTUs. If you have a GTUs it will have the following:

no rear wiper
aluminum hood
sticker in door jam that says "205/55/R16"
manual windows
no sunroof


I think theres a few more, but I forget them right off hand. Dont expect the VIN to tell you what trim package it is. I went to mazda and asked them to look it up and give me some more information on it and they couldnt because they suck with keeping records.
