As above, anyone know what options were available ?
We have an 82 model that has full red leather, piped in what looks to be yellow ( which I've never ever seen before in one of these ) with Fawn carpets and thankfully no sun roof.

Sounds like someone has had that re-upholstered or it was special order.

Has it got an option sticker in the boot or service book?

Trim looks to be the original. No service book as yet.
Where is the options decal on a 944 ?

Possibly in the boot, peel back the carpet to reveal....

With beige, it sounds like a transplant. If it was a special wishes car the rest would match.

Pic?

Certainly not. They’re 911 Can-Can Red seats. Those seats weren’t manufactured in 1982.

I’m guessing 911 because of the contrasting piping. In 944 terms, that is a 1982 car with 1986> seats.

If the rears match perfectly then I’d guess that they came out of an 87-88 ‘special wishes’ car. Can-Can is extremely rare - I’ve seen two cars in the flesh.

I've seen it in a couple of 220 turbos, no piping though

That's why I wondered whether it was a Sonderwunsch car Ed. Im curious to see how well the rear matches the fronts.
