In the UK they were 2+2 Twin Turbo targa top only, but other countries got different options.. Japan had 2 seater and 2+2 options in both NA, Twin Turbo guise with a choice of targa top, coupe (the very rare 'slicktop') and convertible and the US only got the 2 seater with all engine & roof options.
Emd - as it's an import, have the clocks been replaced or fitted with a 'speedo converter' behind the clocks and a little sticker? The converters generally mess with the speed signal that the box expects to see as the gearbox ECU & power steering take their feed post gauges. A tell tale is that the steering is light at medium speeds as the ECU thinks it's going a lot slower than it really is..
Other culprit could be the cam angle sensor; big multi plug on the right hand exhaust cam as you look at the front of the car.

My brother probably has the best 2 of these in the country, one is ex sultan of Brunei and has 11k on the clock the other has been completely rebuilt to better than new spec. Not my cup of tea though !
