Is there any websites that I can get on to find info about my personal 240. Like where it was made and specifics like that.

...are you trying to get DNA testing to make sure its really yours?

I think you could search and find out where they were made, but I was under the impression they all came from the same factory, but some went to the dock for shipping and some went to the japan showroom floor.

I was just wondering because my 92 fastback has what looks to be a factory turbo decal on the hatch and i was just wondering. It doesnt have turbo and they didnt come from the factory with turbo.

Post pictures of your car and engine bay, and someone should be able to identify them for you.

Was there a Civic behind you? If so then the wing didn't fall off it was thrown.

Great link. Well, according to my VIN my 1990 coupe was manufactured in Kyushyu, Japan. My car is California Only car, and option package 11. But for some reason I have the cruis control too, which is in option 27 ?

not really, someone decided to put on a turbo emblem. lol. i'd personally remove it asap, or start sourcing bolt-ons to make it true
