Anyone that has an oblique Thomas Dolby reference in their sig gets free options checks for life.

Those of us that follow this thread (mainly out of curiosity) know full well that there will be the occasional "non-standard' option description here & there.

And, just to note it, this thread is now over 3000 posts. Guessing an average of 2 1/2 posts per VIN (VIN request & response are automatic, interesting comments, 'thank you' and other input is there on roughly half of the cars) about 2% of all the 928s made have been run through here.
