I was at my marine and caught a glimpse of a 95 smilie face bumper. I walked over to the car and checked out. From what I could tell it was a 95, it had the 95 weird 5 spoked rims, front bumper, rear bumper, and even the funny black plastic trim around the bottom of the whole car instead of side skirts. What really threw me off was that it was a spyder gs. I was under the impression that the spyder was made from 97-99 anyone see anyhting like this before?

Yeah that's pretty for weird for two reasons.. No 95-96 Spyder's were made, and it's a GS but only turbo models came with the grey on the bottom. So for some reason somebody switched their 97-99 Spyder GS to a 95-96 turbo model body style obviously.

I thought the spyder's came out in 96'

I saw a silver spyder eclipse (97-99) but it was in RS trim, had black handles and mirrors, no skirts and the 14" RS wheels. I had never seen a Spyder RS before...

Grey trim was on the GSX's. He wasn't talking about those though. He said the bottom had "black trim instead of sideskirts" and that it was a "spyder GS". That leads me to believe that the car was originally black and was then painted red and then the skirts were removed. Or, he put a black kit on it.

"and even the funny black plastic trim around the bottom of the whole car" 95-96 GS-T's have the trim on the bottom, too. There are 96 Spyder GS-T's, but he says it's a GS. But like I said I don't think the Spyder GS-T's had the grey on the bottom. So the only thing it can be is any year/make Spyder with 95-96 GS-T/GSX body panels.
