All 968 cabs are special, but this one is particularly rare, with rare factory options and special and tasteful upgrades and modifications. It is a 1992 the first model year ever made, (production date 12/1991), with exceptionally low miles for a 24 year old car. It is one of only seven 968s cabs ever produced to have Full Factory Leather option in Cashmere tan (out of a total production of over 2000 cabs brought to North America). The door panels, the door handles, the seat backs, the center tunnel, lower dash, armrest, etc. are all in gorgeous Cashmere Tan leather. You may not see another one outfitted like this for sale. This was a $4000+ option from the Porsche Factory back in 1992. Clean CarFax (available upon request) I am not a car dealer. I'm just a 968 enthusiast. This car was bought by me in April of 2014 at a local dealer. I have METICULOUSLY gone through the entire car over the last 2 years to bring it to perfect running order, and more, installed many appropriate upgrades and modifications. I have receipts for EVERYTHING done to the car, spent over $18,000 in the past 2 years. And you are, of course, welcome to go through at the receipts (and the car) to verify this. If you come test drive this car, you with feel like you are driving a modern car, not a vintage one.

This is a CARB approved and certified system -- and the car as the sticker from Cali to prove it. And it passed smog test a few months ago. Message me, and I will send you a pic of the CARB seal and the smog test -- I am maxed out at 24 pictures, otherwise I would post them directly to eBay. Thanks.
