Does not show up anywhere on the paperwork for either car or the original sticker.

What is unclear for me is the fact that it seems to be "just" a regular manual S4 with many Kremer parts (body kit, mirrors,...).
I really doubt it is as light as 2600 lbs, or the body kit is really "light"

I've heard of that but this is the first time I've ever seen an image, real or otherwise. And I spent a few hours looking...

It could be because they never made a complete car.
Here is as far as they got (supposedly there were three variations):

Exclusive?

Never heard of that, and no production numbers stated.

More were made with the wide rear fenders.
I will try to indentify these cars with a specific option code.
Thank you.
I have also found the Competition Pacakage and will try to identify them.

For SC (in the context of genuine Factory 928s) read or hear SE - RHD version of the CS but with some of the luxury stuff refitted. But as with the CS the lightest post galvanising bodyshells selected and rumour has it the engines selected from the most powerful (post engine dyno testing).
For SC (in modern 928 speak) refer to Andrew Olson, Dave Roberts, Carl Faussett and many others that my brain can't remember.

Could someone provide a Competition Package car's VIN?
I have tried to identify them by using the M473 option code (WITH FRONT AND REAR SPOILER) but have found only three cars in 1981/1982.

First there was the Artz Kombi (first image) - which was a true Wagon or Estate. Artz was independent, and Porsche had nothing to do with this project.
Then there was the 942 (second image) - that was Ferry Porsche's dark green metallic 4-seater with two doors. They only made one of those in Weissach. He got that in 1984 for his 75th birthday, and it already had S4 style bumpers and lights plus some projection lights that never made it to production.
Lastly, there was the ASC 4-door, two of which they made around 1987 with different back ends - one is a US version (third image), burgundy metallic with burgundy interior, and the other a Euro version (fourth image) in an amethyst like color with black interior. Whether it was really used much to shuttle Ferry around is disputed - his personal chauffeur and fleet manager does not recall ever driving a such 928. However, this is the car that is on display at the museum, and it shows quite some wear.
Ferry Porsche's last car was a dark green metallic 928 GTS with license plate S-CC 1234

According to someone at the Porsche factory, around 10 cars were made with these front fenders.
More were made with the wide rear fenders.
I will try to indentify these cars with a specific option code.
Thank you.

Options
- Concealed tilting headlights: ??? - There is danish guy on this forum, who has an S4 with this option, but not the modified rear arches. I will try to contact him to get the option code.
- Flared rear fenders with increased track: XC1
- Standard entrance panels with covers for flared rear fenders: XB4
- Exhaust-system club-sport version: No option code
The last car shown on the page (1991 S4 or GT) with the GTS flares has the option XX9.

I know one car with the 944 like front ligths and it has no specific option code:
WP0ZZZ92ZHS840516
The problem is that the 09991 option code is not listed into our database and it only indicates that the Exclusiv programm was used for this car. But you don't have a clue what for.
I have found 10 cars with XC1, 1989 only.
9 of them as XB4, the remaining has XB2.
Only one car with XX9. It's a 1991 S4 delivered in the USA.
I know a 1991 S4 that has a GTS look from factory.
Can someone confirm that the XG8 option code is GTS look?
