Since the last NA coupe was 820319, wouldn’t that make this one of the last nine instead?
Also, can you tell us what factory options the car came with? Anything else interesting about this car?
One problem I see right off is Cup1 wheels.
Thanks!

SS820310
You are correct. #2,225 of 2,234.
It is interesting for a couple of reasons. It is 1 of 60 "last batch" 968s that are true 1995s. (not a 718 car). October 1994 build date.
Besides the tip (it is NOT the last tip coupe, SS820312 is), options include metallic paint, partial leather, painted crest center caps, body colored painted rear spoiler, CD-2 in dash single CD player.
Another cool thing about it is that it is one of 16 coupes without the cassette storage and console lid from the factory. (Like the CS)
It came with the standard 16" 5 spokes when new.

RS840305
1 of 443 G1 Red cabs (most popular color on the cab)
1 of 221 G1 Red cabs with a cashmere interior and a black top. (most popular combo on the cab).
#1266 of 2,008 NA cabs (92-95)
#245 of 681 1994 NA cabs

Factory options:
LC Partial leather seats in Cashmere
XD4 Painted crest center caps
249 Tiptronic transmission
437 Full power 8 way drivers seat


A late 94 built in August of 1993 so it has all the late model years changes like the 993-stlye comfort seats and the lack of engine bay trim.

I've seen it before. It was on eBay in May of 2004 in IL with 32K miles.

Sorry, I can't help with that other VIN. Only North American 968s.

Jeff

Thanks, Jeff. The 968 is now happily living in Scottsdale, out of the cold IL winters.The current owner has owned 3 968's before this one, out of his 50+ Porsches, and keeps coming back to them.

And it now has 62k miles.
