Most of the midnight blue with cashmere interior WB cars have a black dash/steering wheel and rear dash and this appears to have dark blue which with the seat piping makes it unique and it seems dark enough that you won't have reflection issues in the windshield.

My eye is still relatively untrained but the other things I noticed are the aftermarket speakers and they removed the CD holder from behind the ebrake. Has sagging engine bay insulation, fabspeed cup airbox, AC has been upgraded and vent kit installed. The rear fender rock guards appear hazy at least on the drivers side. I am not sure if they get that way over time or if they were installed too soon after a respray before the paint fully outgassed. Car seems to have appropriate rock chips/patina for mileage on front of car. I hope the new owner lowers it as these cars look so much better at the RoW ride height. The nice thing is since it is a '94 like Cobalt explained in his thread if you are serious about the car you can check the VIN stickers on each body panel (front fender stickers you have to open the door and shine a light up on the backside of that little lip to see them) the rest are pretty easy to track down.

I was in contact with the seller who was trying to sell the two WB 964 at the same time. It is not one of those cars.

From what I remember those went quick! I thought one was slate grey which is a super rare WB color. I forgot what color the other was but I don't think it was blue.

Don't you love that kind of honesty? lol That's on par with someone selling a 140k mile 25-30 year old 964 that has "never seen rain".

^^ sorry car does very little for me. Not a speedster fan unless it is a widebody. I have very different production numbers for these. 1261 total made and 865 imported to the US. So many of these were purchased and held onto as potential collectables. I haven't seen many around lately but most I knew of all had very few miles and this one is what I consider a high mile version. Without paint readings and leak down tests jumping into this for strong money IMO is a mistake.

If production numbers are truly that high then it really begs the question why the high resale prices. Targa production numbers aren’t much higher and when you consider how many have been totaled or heavily worn I would think the prices wouldn’t be that far apart but they are based upon the current bid on the Speedster on BAT.
