Default Iridescent Canary Yellow?
88 S4 on Ebay with this factory color. If true, its gotta be the first I've heard of. Its in Studio City so maybe it was special ordered for a Tv or movie star.

I'm about getting a heart attack... This looks like the show car for the Frankfurt Auto Show around tha ttime! I saw the car once at a smaller show, and always thought it was a Euro model - maybe not. My best friend owned the sister car - a 1988 924S with black leather interior - for some time...

If this is the same car I saw. it is an absolute dream! It had an all grey leather interior and was "loaded" in many other ways (don't remember the details). I dreamed of this car for years, but never heard of or saw it again. I hope it has been kept well - 90k miles have probably worn a little on the light grey interior...

Either way, a car worth looking at. I wish it would come to the Sharktoberfest. That alone would make the trip worthwhile....

Nice car. Studio City is real close to me if any one is interested in a preview. I will go take a look at it for you.

Nope. They have been added later. My friend did the same on his 924S, and also added the 968 door handles. However, it was impossible to match the color 100% - the downside of cusom colors...
