I've got one. The registry shows 9 cabs and 8 coupes. It looks like about 30% of the US cab production is listed, it's not clear how many coupes are there. The full breakdown by year and vin is in there as well;
www.968register.org and look on the related info page. Mine is 1994 #650 (last part of the vin)

" I'm not crazy about blue dash / blue trim interiors... a two tone black and classic grey would definitely get my attention, but light grey ( it seems that it is the light version ) with blue dash.. not a chance."
Nice car but that is a lot of money for a coupe. The interior is marble gray/midnight blue. That is what they called the lighter color gray in 94.5-95. It is not the best match with Iris, still a rare color.

Well this is encouraging. I did not think there were many Iris cabrios around. Sure there are not many but it's not like it's only 5 or something.
My supercharged car is an Iris Blue cab and I really love the color, however the car itself is not in very good shape and probably too far gone for me to bother fixing up. I expect to move the SC to my other car and get rid of the blue car, then hope to find another Iris or other blue cab that is in great shape to settle on. My brother's cab, the status of which is currently unknown, is Cobalt blue and while striking it's a bit flash for my taste.
My cab has the gray/blue interior and blue top which I am also not wild about. If I rehabbed it I might go to linen interior and blue top. Not sure. It would also look OK with cashmere interior I think.
