In 1993, you could buy: o 3-door in turbo or non- o 2-door convertible in turbo or non- o 4-door non-turbo In 1994, I think only turbo convertibles were available. My recommendation? Don't buy a '93. Buy a '91 and save yourself some money. There were no changes of any import during the '91 through '93 model years, so buy whatever you find in the best condition at the best price. The only unique car was a '93 Commemorative Edition, which is ultra-rare and fairly desirable as it had 185hp. SPGs were discontinued in '91 - if you're going for a 3-door, a '91 SPG would be a good catch. Whatever you buy, have it checked by a mechanic. Then have him double-check, just to be sure... :) -Justin
