I have a red and would sure like to own a Silver Rose. Had a great opportunity to buy a local one 2 years ago a didn't, still regret my decision. The ocean blue one was on Autotrader 2 or 3 weeks ago in Florida for $23.000. It had 155K on the odometer. It is no longer on Trader. I wouldn't mind owning the rarest of the rare.

And, these cars as well have proven to be very desirable, like the other turbo S models, but nothing like the desirability the Silver Rose seemingly has earned. I own one of these '89 turbos and love it greatly. I would wish to as well own a Silberossa if it was in the same comparable condition: low mileage with a history of originality retained, and loving ownership with a pedigree of mechanical attention and care.
If I do buy it, and restore it, it will not be a fully SR interior. The bolsters would prob be in matching leather, and only the inside sections willhave the fabric. Cutting down the "noise" visually
Love the exterior colour though, very classy.
If it was a Turbo S and not an SR, it'll probably become whilte.

But in a sea of non-SR 944s, it is pretty rare, especially more so now that many have fallen by the wayside.
