N9 Oak Green, 1 of 20, factor in the cashmere/black interior, 1 of 17. Options include: metallic paint, partial leather, hi-fi sound with 10 speakers and 2 amps! Good luck.
Thank you. Passed the PPI, Not perfect but well cared for. Supposed to pick her up on Wednesday.

There were 2 other M030s produced after yours, 307 and 311.
On the last production 968 did they have 2 amps is it possible that they moved the mid range speakers to the door card?

On my 92, it has two amps (one under each seat). The hi-fi option has three speakers in each door, and two in each side behind the front seats. I imagine that likely didn't change through the production run.

It did! Check my "changes" newsletter from 2020. Model year 1992 was the only year with 2 amps (one under each bucket seat) with the 490/494 hi-fi sound system with amps.

I know that the standard speaker count on the 968 was 6 for the cab and 8 for the coupe. 490 Hi-Fi cars got 8 and 10.

Several places sell the armrest only, or the whole "Cassette Carrier."

I don't know the car. Red with black interior. Two options: Tiptronic and partial leather. It is an October 1991 car (early, #60 of 2,234) so it should have the recessed hood badge and larger edged rear emblem.

Hi. RS820189 looks like a red NA coupe (1 of 547) with a cashmere interior (1 of 207). Options include LC partial leather in cashmere, 403 17" Cup1 wheels, 437 8-way full power driver's seat, 595 body-colored painted rear spoiler. Your car is a 718 car meaning it was born a 1993 and reVINed to be a 1994 by Porsche. I know your car. It was registered by Lynn back in 2012.
