Very nice. Here are the production details on the car:

#512 of 2,234 North American 968 coupes
#512 of 649 1992 NA 968 coupes
1 of 595 A1 Black NA 968 coupes
1 of 188 A1 Black NA 968 coupes paired with a cashmere interior
Factory options include partial leather in cashmere.

Can you tell me the production date?, found on the driver's door VIN sticker. I'm guessing 6/92.

Thanks
Jeff

Good score! Mine has the same interior, though not as nice as yours. Mine has, shall I say, "more character".

Thanks you all for the kind comments and thanks Jeff for all the info - I'll get you that build date. I got busy today and installed a new front grill I got with the car. Looks a 100% better!

I was afraid of that! That is the exact color combo of my 88 Cab. Just don't get it ready for sale too quick!

Have the exact same interior and have always found it to be a very pleasing space, not too austere. Pretty car and nice work on the grill fix!

Thanks for posting all those pictures. I have a 94' with the same color combo but yours looks to have had much less sun damage. Was this stored indoors? Your Dash is Purdy! I have been wanting to tint my windows, it is nice to see how it will look. You should get a stainless steel shift pattern insert and new leather boot, it looks awesome, just dont touch after being in the afternoon sun.
