Awesome - Not sure how I missed this (I’m in the SD/Temecula are), but let me know when you plan to attend another event! I’ll be at the SDR SCCA autox practice in Lake Elsinore on Saturday running my Cayman R, in case you want to check that out!

Looks like a great crowd!

I just noticed your speaker on the door panel looks different, almost fuzzy?
Attached is what mine looks like for reference:

It was merely my poor lighting in the previous photo. Here are some “better” photos!

He probably means in North America. There are stats out there put together by Simon Ogden using the VINanalytics database. There were only 47 Guards Red cars in on this side of the pond, with 4.5% of all of them having PCCB ...that works out to about two cars, but the exact amount could be known from looking at the database.

AH I forgot about that site, that's where I found out it's the second most expensive manual! I didn't know there was a compilation anywhere though.

I have build sheets for all the CR's and looked through to see how many Guards cars there are with PCCB's and didn't see any others.

Correct - North America. Should have specified that. I show the same 47 Guards Red cars from the data I have, but only had 1 with PCCB's, so I'd be curious in finding which one is not matching between the data.

Either way, it's an incredibly uncommon car. I just enjoy looking through vehicle production data, very interesting.
