Since the Turbo S cars were all pretty much loaded from the factory, few non-standard options.... Chances are all the US cars had sunroofs, unless it was special ordered

Yeah, it's weird, everyone seems to over sunroofs/moonroofs here. In fact, I'm almost always questioned when I spec my cars without; as if I'm some weirdo.

I ordered a Fiat Abarth a few years ago and they kept kicking the order back because I was spec'ing it as a sunroof delete. It's a white car and the sunroof make the whole roof black which is unsightly if you ask me!

Yeah, it's weird. Dealers in the US think us crazy Americans will never buy a car that's missing a sunroof, so they don't seem to want to take that chance (in case we either back out of the deal, or end up trading in the car later and they're stuck with a preowned car they think they can't ever sell).

Not to derail the thread more but I even have a sunroof on my 10' Sierra truck. I bought it slightly used so I obviously didn't spec it with a sunroof but in 3+ years of ownership, I have not once opened it and have nearly as rarely even opened the sunshade. Useless, pointless option.

I never understood headlight sprayers. Do people let their lux or performance cars get so dirty that a headlight lens is blocking enough light from the headlamps to impair driver visibility at night? These should be reserved for serious off-road vehicles - I would even say they are ridiculous on a Cayenne. They are unsightly and pumps and tanks are unnecessary weight. When I put a euro bumper on my car I "deleted" mine.

993 Porsche Turbo S, 500 miles, Literally New - $395000 (Denver)
Literally new, stunning Turbo S in very rare Wimbledon Green. Never painted anyware.
This is car is irreplaceable and obviously highly collectable, and is priced accordingly at $395,000.
There is not much to say about this car as it is in perfect condition, and the right buyer will understand what this car is.

Once had a pretty thick ice layer on the high beam lens even though I had the low beam on for the whole trip. The sprayers didn't help much on that instance and had to go and physically remove the layer.

edit: BTW, I don't know anything about what was delivered to Japan, or anything about this car aside from the video, so for all I know this is a replica. It certainly is different from the USD spec Turbo S.
