  • Year/Model Identification

    Can anyone direct me to information about how to identify the different years and models of Festivas just by looking at the outside?
    Tks,

    you can tell if its a 88/89 by the grill and tail light... other than that its very hard... also if it has a spiler its a 92 or 93 gl sport, or put on there by someone... also if it has swoopies on it then its a 90lx or someone has put them on... other than that there is not much else....

      88-89's have smooth taillights, and wide side moldings, and I think all of them have the pillars blacked out also.
      90-93's have ribbed tails, and skinny side moldings except for 90' L+ and LX.
      -93' L BP swap/e-series, coilovers, RIO front swap, redrilled festy drums, Miata 14" 7 spokes.
      -88' Mazda 323 SE, work in progress..
      -85' Nissan Sentra 5 spd.

            You can tell if it is a GL from the colored bumpers.

              Thanks for the observations Guys, but what I'm really looking for is a chart showing Front, Side, and Rear view pictures of each Model of each Year that US Festivas were made.

              If no one knows of such, I guess I will start to put one together myself.

                      That's cool, thanks......that one is also a sticky in the General Discussions section.

                      I just wondered if he had a list of the year-specific colors.

                        The paint codes are also a sticky. In the custom interior exterior section.
