I would assume that an emblem delete car was ordered instead of 'off the showroom floor'. sounds like the midnight blue might also be a 'checked box' car due to the colored spoiler.

Thank you Jeff!

Where is the best place to source the engine bay trim? I think the cars with it look much better. Like the one below:

Hi Jeff,
Very close into buying WP0AA2966RS820203. White on Cobalt Blue.
Could I have the whole description on a car that seems to have some unique features?
Thank you!
Best,
Rod.

Thank you Jeff!
I actually thought there would be less white cars with that cobalt blue interior.
I'll let you know the production month once I see the vin sticker.
It does not have the engine trim. I thought the 718 cars had them.
best,

Hi Jeff,
I joined the 968 owner's club today! Just bought a low mileage 1994 White 968 coupe (VIN WP0AA2966RS820380). I have the options sticker still in place, but I'm curious as to what else the VIN might tell me. Thanks in advance!
Stefan
