Someone posted on a thread that they had an 87 5 spd that was for sale as well and also in Edmonton. There could not have been too many 87 5 spds in the area. But I have no idea which thread it was or what his user name was.
Update: Found the thread, post #10

87 S4 options tag.
My brother's old car, now mine, is L35U Veneziablau and was linen leather QD I believe. I recall blue piping when the seats were original, but I am not sure if I have any pics from back then. Was there piping on the back seats?
Eventually I plan to have the car sorted out a bit more and to sell it. It's not in great shape or even good at this point.
I'll upload a pic of the option tag,
-Joel.

The 928 is a weirdo magnet... and a magnet is exactly what one needs to find a needle in a haystack. Notice I did not say impossible.

It's got a MPH cluster. My records via Carfax go back to 1992, 45K miles, Atlanta GA. My brother bought it in 2000 from the Atlanta area.

Brings back memories even though not the same car. Will keep looking for the actual car, but when you are ready sell, PM me! PLEASE!

As an aside, does that one at mohr imports look like it's sporting some extra ride height in the front, or is the rear sagging? What do you guys think?

Can you contact Porsche and ask for the VIN of your Dad's car? If they are willing to release the VIN, should be easy for them to find it. The car is probably a one of one that was ever delivered to Alberta or Canada for that matter.

Yeah, tempted, still waiting for the dealership to do some digging. At this point need to find out what happened to it.I like the white whale reference...I feel like Ahab now LOL

^ Good eye, GT. Never thought of that, makes sense.
Yeah nice car for sure. Visualize that same car, only with about 12,000 miles, less than 2 years old back in the day. It was amazing to say the least and got attention wherever it went.
