Beautiful car Chuck. A play on words,...but most buyers would not buy your car. All it takes is one. Your cab being 1 of only 22 Amethyst Metallic NA cabs produced (thanks Jeff and 968 Register) and probably more rare with the interior color is certainly valuable. Not sure if you mean too expensive for a buyer, or, you will not get what you want for her?

Chuck Z- FWIW,

If I was looking to buy a convertible, I would give your serious consideration. Seems that there are always more convertibles for sale than coupes. Usually lower milage too.

Amethyst Pearl was a color offered for several years back in the early 90's. I had the car completely resprayed. It was done correctly; I took a lot of it apart myself and things that were out of my comfort zone were removed by the paint shop. The paint is absolutely perfect. $1000's in new parts and several mods (sway bars M030, headlights, fogs, 3rd brake light to LEDs, air ducts and wheels to name a few. I also thoroughly cleaned almost every inch of the car. Interior was removed and completely redyed. Also had a new top installed and have another new top because the magenta tops are getting harder and harder to find so I bought another for the future. Have all the original parts that were removed/replaced. If you look in the "what have you done to your 968" there are a ton of pics.
