Was that the 88 that was advertised through PCNA? IIRC, I didn't look at it a couple of times b/c of the miles... but when I ended up checking it out I considered going after it. If it's the same car, it had impeccable mait and was extremely nice. Congrats!
A year or two ago I also considered trying another nile green 88 that had factory green seat-piping. I didn't have the $$ then, though - too bad
It's a great color, and I love all of the "earth" tones on these cars.

Mileage is fairly high. I had two PPIs done (including comp & leakdown tests) and everything came back ok. I'll eventually rebuild the motor but it doesn't need it right now.
I just sold my Graphite Metallic 85.5, on the same day the truck arrived from NC with the 951. That helped somewhat with the "seller's remorse."

I want to say the photo in the link you attached is NOT azure blue. Looks metallic to me. Ocean Blue perhaps

yes, I know the totals should be 716 to 718 units sold.... so somewhere between 1 to 3 units unaccounted for.

I've seen that "S" list before. Not 100% sure of the authenticity though. There is a factory Azure Blue "S" spec turbo in the DC area. I'm 99.9% sure it's an '89, not an '88. Next time I talk to the owner I'll ask. Rare color
