i dont look too happy because i hated having my photo taken. They were a distraction and took away from my time drooling over the cars.

I just discovered that my 92 Cab (# 558) has the little while gloves, even unused and in a little plastic bag. And a little rag also in a plastic bag.

Boy are you lucky I have been looking for them for years. When I brought my car used they were not in it. I have been on Ebay and all sites looking for the gloves and rag that came with my car. WANT to sell yours???? Please [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

And even the bags are special!!! They should be the zip-lock type with a red colored zip-lock. OEM details, if you care about these things (which I do).

Mine isn't that old, #0119, in 1994, and I no longer keep socks that could date or out-date me....

Mine is a '95 coupe; #264. I here there is a #310 out there.

Whoops. Thread on Rennlist puts the youngest 968 coupe in the US as a Summer Yellow numbered 318 (doesn't match with Jeff's numbers, but really close). But is it surviving? #307, Polar Silver, was seen at Hershey in 2009.

'... Yes, Gilders car is #8 of all the coupes. That is very low and option code 740 is "show car preparation" so it must have had an interesting history. VIN 0067 is also a 740 car and it was for sale on the internet a few years ago. ...'




I dare to doubt that. I've got a database with basic factory info of (pretty much?) all Porsche 944s and 968s and according to it some 968s where built in Neckarsulm (i.e. in the 924/944 factory). Here, these are not taken into account. I've got info about six US spec (4 coupes and 2 cabriolets) and nine RoW (6 coupes and 3 cabriolets) spec cars. These are very early prototypes I assume.

If this info is correct Gilders car is #12...

I have heard it the other way round, the last 944 S2s have been built in Zuffenhausen.

As far as I remember, the Z after the 96 stands for Zuffenhausen, a car built in Neckarsulm should have a N.

My previous 92 Coupe was #114. Also a quite early model.

In fact, that's true aswell. But that were only cars made for the RoW markets. More significant numbers too; 70 Coupes and 359 Cabriolets according to my DB.

I'm currently parting out an early RoW model, #285.

Why am I not able to quote?

because quotes are disabled due to people quoting things unnecessarily, and quoting long posts, including pics and such, and then saying things like "cool" - it bogged down the search engine horribly - one of these days we'll get that fixed - there is currently a problem with tech support that i am trying to resolve, but it may cost $300 to do it

OT @Porsche968CS:

You do not have a M030 front sway bar for sale, by chance?

Partial Post: Please Login or Register to read the full post.

[Porsche968CS]

No unfortunately not. The car is not equipped with the M030 option. Actually I was already quite happy to find a limited slip differential [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]

Hi,

VIN Number WPOZZZ96ZRS800136

My rego quotes a 1995 model, but I think it is really a 1994.
