I can confirm Cashmere is hard to match, at least whomever redid the seat inserts under my 968s previous ownership had a tough time doing it. Look carefully at the color difference - especially in the passenger seat at bottom of pic.

Having said that, the seats are pretty comfortable and still look good, so I'm not complaining too much. :-)

BTW, OP's car is beautiful!

Thank you! I'm in South Orange County. We should try and get a group of 968's together sometime. I know of 2 other owners in the LA area.

Looking good Tom, your improvements are really great. BTW, no such thing as an "Advanced Technic Package" on a 968. If you have seen that this is an example of Porsche reusing an option code. I think you might be looking at P06 which is the standard am/fm cassette CR1 with 6 speakers. The code was reused as a technic pkg on a later model.

Very nice car, I just picked one up that needs a little work, but I'm up for that. That color is AMAZING! I know there's an Amazon green, but yours could be called Amazing Green!
