930 VIN Decode Help needed

Need someone to decode a VIN number for me. The car I am looking at is a 1988 turbo convertible. The VIN is WPOEB0935JS070225. The "E" is really bothering me. From what I can find out the fourth letter is the body code and "E" means Targa. I have seen other Cabs with the "E" letter, but that still doesnt give me comfort. Does anyone know if this VIN makes sense?
