Here you go Steve:

#1354 of 2,008 NA cab production run
#333 of 681 1994 cabs
1 of 134 A8 Polar Silver metallic cabs
1 of 44 A8 Polar Silver metallic cabs paired with a Black top and a Black interior
Factory options:
A8 Polar Silver metallic paint
LT Black partial leather
220 Limited Slip differential
Canadian car so it has the Canadian package (1 of 55)
C36 Canadian emissions
139/340 Dual heated seats
288 Headlight washers

I would love to see this car. Canadian 968s have rear seats. Of the 55 Canadian 968 cabs only 4 of them have the later 993 style interior. This car is one of them and should have the rear seats and not the package shelf. I would love to see a photo of the rear seats.

I'm at Jeffery.coe@snet.net if you have some shots.
Thanks
Jeff

1 of 595 A1 black coupes
1 of 317 A1 black/black coupes

wrong car

az968gpw 05-16-2016 06:02 PM

Thanks, Jeff. Car now has a red interior so the black has been redone. It looks a lot like the "special leathers" red on the registry interiors. Any chance Porsche would have not recorded the color correctly? I might be able to have the owner sent me the option codes from the trunk sticke.
