Question Anyone have pics of a Black/Cancan 944?

Just wondering if anyone has some pictures of a black 944 with cancan (red) interior? We are looking at an 85.5 944na that is black with cancan leather interior. The carpeting and dash are all back but the seats are cancan and it has a full leather rear seat also. The car needs some major cleaning up so I was hoping to find some pictures of one on here to help motivate a possible purchase.

I might have some. I'll check when I get home.

Personally, White/CanCan is the best color combo.

I've heard that the Can Can red interior is especially difficult to find and very valuable

I have a local customer who has black paint with can can interior and saratoga top in his 951. The seats are the only red. I always thought the car was pretty cool.

Yeah, I like the combo but the car has been neglected for so long I am hoping to find some pictures of a clean one to motivate me to save yet another 944 before its too late. At the moment it hasn't been washed in who knows how long, the tint is peeling, and someone has done a pretty bad attempt at repairing the front nose from years of curb damage etc. The car is interesting to me because its black, has the turbo rear valence, cancan seats with full leather rear seat, and has 15" silver painted fuchs.

Someone at my school has a white '85.5 or '86 944 with the full can-can interior. Red carpet, red leather seats with yellow piping, full leather rear seat. Its a very unique looking interior and no pictures ever do it justice i think. The shade of the red is never captured right.

Not a 944 but you get the idea.

You could search for pics of Andrews car NZ951 from New Zealand unless his lifetime banishment included his posts. He had a dark silver car with full can-can interior. People hear called it the Ronald McDonald interior option.

Hmm... to each their own.

So what was the factory setup on that cancan interior then? Was it like the pictures above, or was it just the seats, or what?

Before I bought my S2 I almost bought a Zemitt Silver/Can-Can Red 86 951. I would have bought it had it not been in Califorina and my bank told me to find a 944 in state!
