I don't know if anyone has seen this yet, July 19, 2006, 08:35:57 PM or if this is even in the right forum, but I stumbled upon this today.6 days and no bids. Decent enough car, but I know a lot of you are silly enough to like louvers, and nearly have a fit when you see a set on our cars. Look.So someone on here, that's closer, buy this nice little gem (with a perfect interior, and 5-spd) and get your louvers while you're at it. I may even be able to stand looking at them if they're on that car.:hick: Quote Selected

Other color was a pewter silver-bronze which I've only seen one... Quote Selected

It wouldn't confirm it, but it would be one more nail in the coffin. Since the rumor is that there were 500 cars built, my guess is that they were done in batches. Maybe they were built all at once, but that seems like it would have been a lot of cars to do at one time. Would have been neat to see though either way.Brent Quote Selected

Interesting the date on my white TC is 06-06 and it is 228955. So a car invoiced 570 units later was built over two weeks prior. Cars in general are not assembled in sequence of vin number. Ive seen another red TC like mine and it was 228910, just 45 from my white one(if I remember correctly it's buck tag date was 6-21)...AFIK there was no special prep required for the paint, so likely they were built in small batches... My red TC is equiped virtually identical to my white one(basic TC with the 157A package). My white one has automatic, lighted entry and premium sound with EQ as additional options. The other red one I saw was basic as well(I believe it did the graphic EQ). Quote Selected
