Default Interesting Horizon Blue Cab on eBay

From the VIN it looks like this is the 51st NA cab. In the pictures you can see it has the recessed hood badge and boxed numbers on the back.

Not well optioned, but a great color.

It is an interesting car. I had sent the seller the details on it:

#51 of 2,008 North American 968 cabriolets produced from 92 - 95
#51 of 667 1992 968 cabs
1 of 34 F4 Horizon Blue cabs
1 of 22 F4 Horizon Blue cabs paired with a marine blue interior and a dark blue top

It is a strippo option-wise, metallic paint and partial leather only.

Overall looks in good shape. But it looks like some areas of the interior didn't receive enough Armor All, whereas other areas got too much! Or perhaps that is a lot of fading in the rear of the interior? Unless that is just the photos, thinking that would look much worse in person.

I would never purchase any car that has had Armor All product applied to it ... ever.
I'm just strange that way I guess.

Supposedly they did change the formula awhile ago so it does not contain silicone any longer.

Perhaps, but I still prefer to avoid anything from Armor All and anything it's been applied to.

On a similar note, I'm still holding onto my last few bottles of 'Black Again', which also had a formula change and the new stuff sucks in comparison. Nothing was better for treating bumperettes and other hard black surfaces on cars.
