This one's red. $ 2,700 ?? ummm. i guess drug abuse is in the equation somewhere. the car's about 11 miles away from me. but frankly, who cares.

Thats a rare one. 1 of 29 D3 Iris blue cars and 1 of only 2 Iris blue paired with cashmere/black. Factory options include metallic paint, partial leather, painted crest center caps, 17" cup2s, full power driver's seat, hi-fi sound, and a spoiler painted in body color. Too bad.

The VIN on the Iris blue is 4 lower than mine. I'll assume they lined up a few with the same color in the paint shop on the same day.

I don't think so. The colors are all over the place and I don't have the Euro production data. The most I see as far as consecutive cars in the same color are 6 white 1993 968 coupes in a row.

The cars between you two are:

642 D3 Iris (flood car)
643 F8 Midnight blue
644 P5 White
645 A1 Black
646 D3 Iris (you)

631, 650, and 654 are also D3 Iris coupes
