Give the page a second to load, took a while for it to load for me anyways.  It's listed as a "1992" but the interior seems like a '90 to me(although, I'm not THAT familiar with the STE's) and it has the "premium unleaded fuel only" writing on the cluster. 8)

The turbo cars are the only ones that recieved the premium fuel writing on the cluster.....I was pointing that out due to the year they listed it as.  It has to be a TSTE, but the incorrect info is the reason why I posted about it in a questioning sort of manner.

I doubt there's many over there at all, that may even be the only one.

It appears to be in great shape.  That has got to be the only Pontiac in Istanbul, the only pontiac in Turkey at that.  And if the person posted the milage correct, at 89000 Km, that is only a bit over 55000 miles.  That car needs to come back to the US.

Probably got it from some service member when they were stationed there.  I saw a few GP's when I was in Incirlik, but they were all GI's cars.

Both me and mine will leave IT when I get back from deployment, I need to take some pictures documenting the car was here.
