Confused on an '81 Euro S
Car is an Euro S with the M28/11 motor, 5 spd and no sunroof.
The vin is 92A0821076.
928 Specialists says that 92A081xxxx is a '80 Euro model and the '81 and up carry the 17 digit vin. Where does the 92A082xxxx model fall? '80 or '81?
Thinking about picking up a decent driver while I dig into my '84 Euro interior and trans swap this fall. I figure a Euro S non sunroof 5-spd model with the 300hp motor would be an easy re-sell once I get my car back on the road.

The VIN you list (92A0821076) is a 1980 5-speed with the Euro S 4.7L (300hp) motor using k-jet. No options listed for it, so it has as you say no sunroof, no cruise control, and the 4-speaker sound system. Its obviously the seller or paperwork thats wrong about it being an '81

I figured when it was imported, something got screwed up.

If its a decent driver, running well now, unless its an indecent price I would not expect it to hang around. If its not running CI$ can take some effort to revive.

I decided that I will not pursue the car. My car won't be down as long as I first thought after looking at it and what I intend to do. In case anyone is interested, here is the car http://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/3206243982.html and he will sell for $5500.
'80 Euro S 5 spd non sunroof car. He did a repaint on the car years ago. Interior is nice except the dash. He texted me somes pics and verified the M28/11 motor. I still has the Euro H4s as well.

Paint looks decent, interior looks like it'll clean up pretty well with some good leather cleaner/conditioner, plus it has manual sports seats, no sunroof, a 5-speed gearbox, and the 300hp motor.
Nice looking car!
