1988 was the 10AE model year. Only 1500 of them were made, and they were all Turbo II models. All of them were all white, with a black interior. Even the trim pieces and taillight assemblies were white, along with the wheels. The wheels looked similar to the regular Series IV Turbo II wheel, but with a different number of fins on the edge. They had a special badge behind the front wheel to show that they were a 10AE, and the steering wheel also had a 10AE logo.

It's an 88 TII, with a twist: The outside is all white, even the rims, moldings and trim around the tail lights. The stock windshield is some bronze color. There are emblems on the front fenders. The interior is black leather with a special steering wheel and shifter ****. It's kind of like a "luxury" model.

The only differences are cosmetic.

Trust me, the car is far from perfect. I think the previous owner gave it a nice Krilon paint job. Every body panel has runs in it. Bondo on both quarter panels. Many areas that the paint is comming off. It needs a lot of $ invested into it, and a bunch more TLC.

Nope, I got it in Marysville. Where do you live Kimo 3? Are you in Washington?
