Cobalt was listed in '91-93 MY brochures but was dropped in '94 MY. This doesn't mean there weren't any done in '94-95 MY. Some people ordered cars using older MY colors but its rare in last two years. 19 US M718 option '94 MY cars are exception as they were done during '93 MY. Color options available for them were same as for '93 MY cars.

Do you know what models these 19 were? I know of the three US 94 turbo's and I had seen a few 968's that have surfaced. Any additional info would be appreciated. My car was one of the last M718 coded turbos. There were a lot of odd things that happened back then. There are some similarities in colors that were no longer listed but showed up on some US 94 MY cars. Although my 1994 dealer sales guide shows cobalt as being an option none of the paperwork other than what PCNA released shows it as being current for 94.
In case of 19 '94 MY US GTS this means they were made in spring 1993 and had to have color from '93 or older MY list. Many basic colors like black were same before and after MY change so those are same except water based paints became available at the time and color can be same but its actual code is different. Out of 19 cars made some were oak green, amethyst etc which were dropped available colors list in summer '93/94 MY change point.

Tony,
Here is a link for the clear you need. You need to order the correct associated hardener and reducer. Unless something has changed, I can beat that price by about a $100. I hope you go with the Glasurit clear as I feel you would be incredibly pleased by the result. 3.5L is going to be enough. Let me know how else I can be of service.

M718 cars were done before normal model year change. They are basically previous model year cars where just and only VIN is for new MY. Everything else is old stuff and cars were made same time when earlier MY cars were still made for ROW markets. Factory simply couldn't use new colors as they didn't know what they would be in future. Same goes with new MY parts like wheels etc. MY change was done usually during factory summer vacation between July and August. M718 cars were done before this break. From legal point of view their manufacturing could start at January 1st.
In case of 19 '94 MY US GTS this means they were made in spring 1993 and had to have color from '93 or older MY list. Many basic colors like black were same before and after MY change so those are same except water based paints became available at the time and color can be same but its actual code is different. Out of 19 cars made some were oak green, amethyst etc which were dropped available colors list in summer '93/94 MY change point.

In the case of the M718 cars I know all of the turbos and RSA's have previous MY engines. So in the case of my turbo the engine is a P code the Vin is an R code, I am assuming that goes for the 19 94 GTS as well.

Hey,
last week i bought a wonderfull 92` Porsche 928 GTS in the very rare color "tahoeblue" (Color code L37 C) ... did someone know how many GTS painted in this color? I´ve only found the one car you´ve written about here.

BTW can't edit an old post but since I posted we learned only 335 stock 94 turbos were imported to the US.
