I'll respond with a new question for the expert!
So how many Tiptronics are there with sport seats.....?
You should write a book about just the 968. You are an uber-expert! (Or maybe you have written a book, and I just don't know it.....)
This gives me an idea..... maybe I'll come up with dream options on a 968 and see if any ever have been produced
Take care!

- 154 - NA 968 coupes with sport seats
- 9 - NA 968 coupes with sport seats and tipronic
- 145 - NA 968 coupes with sport seats and 6 speed
- 67 - NA 968 cabs with sport seats
- 15 - NA 968 cabs with sport seats and tipronic
- 52 - NA 968 cabs with sport seats and 6 speed
So the eBay coupe is a rare one.
As for the book, not yet and probably never, I would only sell a dozen copies to you guys and michelle
If you have any other questions just ask.

Well if you say so..... 
What are the rarer interior colors out there? obviously, black and cashmere aren't, I've seen white/grey, blue, grey/black and used to have pictures of a brownish-red color, think it was called walnut or something, only seven made maybe?
Just wondering what the interior looks like in colors other than the usual, if you have any pictures.
This ones a longshot, but do you have any technical info on the Turbo RS? Curious how 'stock' it is.
Also, what part of CT are you in? you can PM if you want.

Porsche has interior options based on color and type. There were actually 99 interiors offered on the 968 during its 4 years of production. The wilder colors are the rare ones such as magenta (purple), cobalt (bright blue) and the chestnut brown which you touched on. We had a coupe with the chestnut interior show up at Hershey this year. I've attached a photo. There were only 6 coupes and 5 cabs produced with this interior. The absolute rarest and most desirable interiors are the special leathers such as Flamenco/Matador Red and provience blue. Just a couple of 968s were produced with these rare interiors (Raj has one, his car is the only coupe with the Flamenco Red interior, 2 cabs had it).
I don't have info on the Turbo RS. I really just know the regular production line 968s and I'm in Trumbull CT, an hour outside of NYC. If you are in the neighborhood stop by, there is always a 968 show at my house.

99 interiors? Whoa. I can think of, um, Cashmere, Marble Grey, Black, Flamenco Red, Provience Blue, Magenta, Chestnut, Cobalt, Linen, and, uh, that's it
Jeff, do you know what color this is? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1993-...item231e690366 No affil. I like it. Is it a factory color, or an unknown repaint?
BTW - all these statistics you know, are they just for North America or International?

Make that 1 cab with Flamenco, there is someone parting it on ebay.

any chance we'll be able to source a rug for one of these ****boxes at some point ? sorry if i sound like a lover scorned, but these cars were about 2/3 of a real Porsche back in the day... and yes. you sure as hell can get a nice rug for a 911.... so, excuse me if i sound a little pissed.

Nope, the parts on eBay are mislabeled. Those parts are Chestnut. You can tell because certain parts were not available in Flamenco such as the steering wheel. With a Flamenco interior the steering wheel would have been black. Just check PET or ask Raj, he has a Flamenco interior in his coupe and the steering wheel is black.
Yes, all my stats are for North American 968s.

Phew. There's eight more versions of that interior than we first thought! 
Do you know the color of this car? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1993-...item231e690366
Take care!

I had that black/cashmere color combo interior on my first 968 cab(exterior was guards red). Loved that interior. I have a black/grey interior now, which i like, but loved the black carpets before better. One of my option codes on that car was '09991 manufacture from exclusive program/special order vehicle'...not sure if that related to the interior color combo or something else the origninal owner may have asked for.
