Yup, small detail. The big deal regardless of year is that 260HP.

Also, every S was silver rose, not stone gray (steingrau) which is what the one pictured seems to be.

As someone who works for a collector car dealer I can tell you it's a huge difference for super low mile cars. I completely agree the wires and K&N decal need to go, though. He'll get what he's asking if he holds out or takes trades.

Also, the first batch of S's were silver rose, the next batch were whatever you wanted. Porsche pulled a fast one on collectors, telling them it would be an edition of 1000 identical cars, and then pumped out 700+ more. Then, of course, the spec became standard in 1989.

Around what mileage would you say a car like the one we are discussing goes from super low (high $$ premium) to a small $$ premium - or no real premium?
