So, you want a possible 1 of 1 968 cab but you’re not into the obnoxious colors like mint green (yuck!!!). Well, our fellow 968er Spencer spotted an interesting cab and pointed it out to me and it turned out to be a very rare piece and possibly one of one. First the bad news, it is a tiptronic (assuming you wanted a 6 speed), it has 143,000 miles on it, it has no factory options (other then the paint and interior) and the dealer is in Washington state and they want too much money for it ($12,995). Now the good news, it looks to be a one owner car and in nice shape and is said to have no issues. But what makes this car really special is the color. It is painted in the 92-only L80D Cassis Red metallic, kind of a rose-silver. This was a special paint offering in 92 only and cost an additional $1600 on the sticker. Standard metallic paint offerings were only $803. The car also has the optional leather/leatherette (as opposed to the standard vinyl) interior option and you can see the seats have held up well. This is the first and only Cassis red car I have seen. It is kind of an 80’s color as I think it was used on some of the other models during the late 80s/early 90s. It very well could be one of one because, of the 2008 cabs sold in North America, 667 were 92s and I have 181 of those registered and this is the first Cassis red car. If you like the car contact Dan at Landmark motors at dan@landmarkmotors.com or 425-861-1978. I’m thinking the car won’t sell for $13K but it could be a nice car at a better price. Pictures attached. Good catch Spencer!!!
