That interior is nothing that Winston Wolf couldn't sort out
"I'm Winston Wolf. I solve problems."

I wrote briefly of her last month in the RS Parts Advice thread, calling her the "custom-made 'Exclusiv' blue meanie."

Some of you may remember her covergirl good looks -- she was on the cover of 'Exclusiv' / 'Tequipment' brochures back in the day.




Body color's most evident in Ilko's opening photo of the matching wheels ... ironically, in pale BLUE: 'Coppa Florio.'




Magnesium centers:




Can-Can red key fob.




I'd prefer seats with deviating-black stitching. (Inside joke, but not a good one.)




^ ^ Good example of how the lighting & "auto-contrast" camera settings wash out the pale blue in pictures ... to white.


FS: 239,993 Euros.

Price break! Lowered to 229k Euros; 43,000 km.
FS at a different dealer: at-sportwagen.de & mobile.de. No affiliation.

Still has the red key & keyfob. Note the photos in the included factory brochure...

Too much red. Needs some contrast.
I don't think I could relax in that interior....

You have to have a very strong personality to drive a car like that.
It's pretty farking awesome in a way, but I could never drive a car like that.
Can you imagine picking up a first date in that car?
The look on her face would be priceless.
The interior is like a french bordello

I still love it for what it is.

LOL. I think my first date thought I was a French Bordello owner. After 20 years later she's still wondering WTF she got herself into.

I don't think you would want to relax too much when driving that car

I don't think it matters
if you own that car, you probably own 5 -10 of your other favorite cars, most likely all p-cars

I was having the same thought....like they took a spray can to the interior. Funny the gauge rings are red, but the black rubber grommet sticks out. And the RED radio....LMAO...and the red switch rings. It like they were trying just a little too hard to get everything red!

The Exclusiv cars can be a bit mad can't they! I like the exterior colour and the interior wouldn't be so bad if it had some black bits and pieces to break it up.

Here's another Exclusiv special. Thought you guys would like to see this. Gotta love the wood against the red!

Can't Can't red for me...looks like a tomato exploded. A little too ghetto-ish IMHO. I like the 993 that attracts attention without BEGGING for it.
