Default HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY TO ALL 86.5's!!!

This week begins their 'birthday season' (OK, so I have a low threshold for celebration!)

They are now of 'legal age' for that ethanol . . .

To all the 86.5's everywhere:

LOL!

Well, Happy Birthday then...

But how do you know what day they went beyond VIN 1000?

Good point... OK, so we celebrate for the entire six months!
Actually, that's an interesting question -- how to find our car's 'born on date'...
Dunno, but I'm 'all ears'! (poetic license, eh?)
Anyone know?

The Certificate Of Authenticity from Porsche will tell you. I guess ALL 86.5's will be 21 when the line shut down and switched over to the '87 S4, no?

Heidi is closing fast on 22 years old in Oct, Helmut is as well in Dec, but Griselda is the youngest at 21 this month.

last four and Build month? Mine is 1459/December '85. It would be interesting to correlate Vin's and build Month. The closest VIN to mine listed on the 928 Registry is 1467, maybe on the line the same day, also Indischrot.
