The 993 Pattern started (in the u.s. at least) with 1994.5 cars. Late 94's and all 95's have that seat pattern. The 92, 93, & early 94 cars have the earlier 964 style seats.

From an option code perspective it was a hard cutover. The 17" Cup1s all have code 403. The 17" Cup2s all have option code 398. You only find 403 on 92-94.5 968s and 398 on 94.5 - 95s.

In ROW cars change was clear. '92-93 have Cup I and '94-95 have Cup II. Same thing with interior changes, available color options etc. In US models M718 option messes things up somewhat.

Thanks for the confirmation gents
@Erkka - 2 very nice GTS you have in your signature - I guess you are good friends with Olli Snellman over in Finland

I don't doubt that at all, but this was a Porsche 968- with recessed hood emblem, rear badge, underhood trim pieces, exhaust tips, and wheels among others being added/deleted/changed-I'd say anthing that happens inside a model year can be considered a rolling change. I guess, just like the 85.5 944's getting the oval dash, they did what they wanted to do!

Jeff, are you sure that car is Violet Blue Metallic? I looked at the one that's on sale in Atlanta (http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/cto/1745834875.html) last month, and it's much lighter than this car. I suppose it could have an all-over fade in the paint, but it definitely looked like a lighter purple.
That Atlanta car is nice, by the way. If only I could talk the wife into...

Porsche circles are really small in here. Last I spoke on the phone with Olli was maybe week ago. He was working on 968 cab previously owned by a friend who still owns few 928's. Automatic GTS is in same friends garage.
