ok this is so freaky.................. i called mazda and they said it was a gtu!!!!!!!!!!!!! so what the hell a gtu with ALLLLL gxl options. Im keeping this car since rare,

 

How come my car has 4 disc brakes, 4 lug telephone dial wheels, manual everything and electric sunroof? What the hell kina FC do I have here?

 

go gtu man.

 

hmm stupid insurance, they are going to call me back,
im calling the dealer to see what they say.

 

have a 1990-Gxl with all power options.. roof,mirrors,arial,doors,windows ect ... has the bullet proof auto trans, leather & cloth seats & door molding, disk rotors all ways around - title says it's a gxl & gtu !!! theres a web sight that spells out alloptions of all modeks , try google search engine to find it , can't remember which one it is ?

 

Yes, it's rare to find a salvage-title rebuild like that. I think it's most likely a paperwork or computer error.

86-87 Luxury or 88 SE. It may also be an 86-87 Base model, but I don't think that they came with a sunroof, although I'm not sure about that. The Luxury model had power mirrors and manual windows, if that helps any.

BTW, all of the 2Gens have 4-wheel disk brakes. It's the 4-piston front calipers on the 5-lug wheels which indicate the better brakes.

 

I guess it is a base model, it is definetly a factory sun roof. I went to my friend's body and chassis shop he inspected it and told me it was not aftermarket installation. So I'll settle for the 87 base model with sunroof and automatic transmission manual everything BUT..... TURBO CONVERTED!!!!

 

Leather seats were an option on the GXL... at least on the S4's Just about the only option you could get other than the 2+2 version and ABS which was $1300

 

well, i got my car registered for insurance today, seems that the vin can tell u which it is, dont remember what the numbers are though, anyone know?

No, the VIN does not tell you what model other than if it has a turbo or in the case of the SRS equipped cars, what seat belt or air bag it has.

And although this thread was dead for a good 6+ months, and brought back from that dead zone by 1adzam; Angel has a Luxury coupe.

 

Usually the VIN has all the info for the car. Even if you dont have the code the local Mazda dealer should be able to tell you about the car. It does sound like you have a GXL but you should probably check with the dealer. I would definately start there, but thats just me.

 

Should be five lug

 

No, that is incorrect. For example say you had a 87 coupe (as mentioned above) it is model number FB04, according to the factory and the VIN build report from the factory that the dealer has.

So the dealer looks up FB04 and finds it could be either a LX (which was never offically advertised in the USA, instead it was called a "Luxury package"), or it could be a SE (again based on what Mazda has listed for the 87 FB04 model).

So which was it??? Well a expert would know that is must be a Luxury coupe, because Mazda didn't make the SE available until 88. Yet there it is in the Mazda factory info sheets on models that it could be either. In fact Mazda model sheets say the LX was built through the entire series 4 run. And lets face it, how many dealers have anyone close to an expert working for them???

Again the VINs do not list what model it is. And Mazda's info is only based on what VIN was what model number and there was 24 different model numbers just for the series 4 cars.

Hey I dont know what the vin all tells you, but before you buy any car you should use the vin to do a CarFax report. Also if you are buying anything like a car or "Wire Harness" from someone on the forum maybe you should look at the buyer feedback section. Like for example if I were to buy a wire harness from Quenepahead_Racing I might wanna check out the Buyer Feedback section to see if he is selling good products. That way I can see if he is selling good products and if he is not does he treat his customer correctly..? Well if anyone is bored they should just check out buyer feedback as it is fun to see who on here is ripping who off.
