Might be the car, all of the graphics are different now. The speed yellow rear spoiler is the same. It has a great pedigree. Boris Said and David Murray drove for the team that this car was a part of.

The current owner made reference to those 2 drivers as part of the cars history.

Nice cars indeed. Been in the yellow car at Road America with the previous owner years ago.

Nice photos, yes, there are only 10 SY 968 coupes. Remember, Rader's car was also a SY sunroof delete. I will have to check my data and let you know if any of the others were sunroof delete. Next time you see the cars grab the VINs. Cool to see them still going.

The wheels are Fikse Profil 13. The Profil 13 in 18", assuming 9 and 10" width, is right at 20 pounds per wheel.

I checked the coupe registry data. Of the 10 speed yellow 968 coupes only one was NOT coded with the 650 sunroof, Rader's car, #9 of the 10. It will be interesting to see what this Firehawk car is. The next time someone sees it grab the VIN.
