VINS don't lie... it's most likely an 87 with 91 cosmetic parts added, which is relatively easy to do.

I guess it could be a 91 with an 87 dashboard VIN, but thats unlikely.

Ask the seller if at least 2 VINs are the same (i.e. one on the dash and the one on the drivers doorjam) If so, it's an 87.

See this handy dandy chart (which also confirms that it was a Syncro from the factory because of the "G", not a 2WD home converted to a Syncro).
