Does anyone know if this is a MO30 car, can I see Koni adjustables in engine shot?

I saw that too plus the 17" wheels but no, it's got standard brakes so no m030.

Nope, like I said, it is just a misread option code 231. I'm sure that option code Z31 is for a leather knee bar for a 996 or something.

Nah. Way too nice. I had a pristine white '95 coupe with 54k miles - didn't have the heart to turn it into a race car. So I sold it for what I paid for it, purchased a '92 chassis from GAD for 2k and built this instead.

No.
It's down in GA now.
Drove it down there last year and left it in the driveway as a surprise gift for a relative.

I would like to have a 968 Coupe, just sort of looking/waiting for the right one to come along.
Really like the 968 for some reason...

Did anyone notice that the door window pillar was painted body color on this car? That's not factory, is it? The other 968's I have seen have it black like my 944 window pillar. I think it breaks up the flow of the window line too much on this car, it makes it stick out and look like it was jut put in there. Anyone else?
