Looks like a great deal! I'm sure that interior color would look A LOT better if it was cleaned.

Was it definitely factory installed?

I have the full leather on my cab. It is rare, largely because it cost $4170 back in 1992. I have full buckets covered in leather, front and rear, and the lower dash, console, and door pulls as mentioned previously.

Somebody should get the option codes, it might have 220 as well if they ordered full leather!

I asked for option codes yesterday so hopefully I'll get a response tomorrow during business hours.

I like the black bumpers...

And no I'm not fat, despite Jeremy Clarkson's claims that all Americans are!

Wow, that is a good price. I paid $200 more for a car with 20K more miles, a more worn interior/exterior and shot suspension...

Oh well, that's the price of purchasing a rare car with very few on the market at any given time.

Factory installed, here is the part number for a 1995 968 with a black leather dash, 944 552 085 50 ATP.
here is the part number for a black leather dash with airbag, 944 552 085 26 ATP.
so that car is not full leather interior.

Sean,
It is "full leather" as far as US cars go, unless you are talking something custom. Again, my car has the black leather, code VD, the window sticker calls it leather as opposed to partial leather which you see on most 968s in the US. I have the original PCNA salesman book and it lists this as option as full leather. The cost was $4,190. The dash was not part of the package. I have seen leather dashes on US 944s but not on 968s.

It just occurred to me it would probably be cheaper than $4,190 (2008 dollars) to send a dash, door pulls, and console to the 928 leather shop to be done in any color, material or stitching desired. Though it won't be factory original with the option code. And the seat-backs and back seats would still be vinyl.

PorscheDude1

Of course this would apply only if they were still producing 968's....

The full leather option has the following parts covered in leather.
Lower Dash
Center Console
Center Console cassette holder cover
Door panels
Door arms rests
Full leather perforated seats, front and back
Rear seats
iIcould be forgetting a few pieces.

You start to get all these done, it will get close to the $4190

I'm wondering if the ROW full leather option was different? I am positive the US full leather option on airbag 944/968's had leather only on the lower portion of the dash.

I implied leaving the front and rear seats alone, as it's likely a 968 already has partial leather front seats. Are the door panels leather? I thought it was just the door pulls (door arm rests). But even if it is all done, it will be less than what $4190 was worth 15 years ago. I'm just sayin! It won't have the same resale value as factory original leather though.

Looks like someone snagged it for the "Buy It Now" price, because it is no longer available. I guess all the talk about the condition and interior prompted someone to buy it quick!!
