Factory Aspec Turbo Vert?
#1
ok i have always been told that there were no turbo verts in america from the factory. today this guy said he had a 91 that was turbo from the factory. he seemed to know what he was talking about but i dont know if he was bs-ing me or not. he said they only made like250 or 300 of them. anyone know anything?

Thanks for the vins!! I wondered that myself. There is a Turbo Vert forsale in Florida and its supposidly factory correct. It was a promotional car built be mazda for a commercial back in the early 90's featuring James Garner. He WAS asking 12K for it its still for sale almost a year later but the price is down to 7K.

its very possible they brought a few in for stuff like that and testing, but IF they did its prolly under 15-20 cars. you'll notice they dont even have a vin for a turbo vert...
what you are looking for is factory correctness, things like make sure the hood hasnt been changed, put it this way i did a t2 -> gtus swap and i made sure EVERYTHING under the hood was correct, even the zip ties. the only way you could tell it was a swap is by looking at the hood hinges.... but if you see things that arent right its prolly a backyard job

i didnt actually see the car. he said he had some injector probs and it was at the dealer for like 8 mos. when he went to pick it up it was gonna be like 8000 bucks so he told them to keep it. if i would have seen it i would have been able to tell.
