Default New 3.2 owner: 1988 Granite Green Metallic coupe with pics

Just wanted to show off my new purchase a 1988 Carrera Coupe in special order paint Granite Green Metallic with gray green carpets , seats , dash, steering wheel and headliner.

Question regarding the whale tail and front chin ... should I see an option code for them? How do I know they weren't added to the original build sheet?

There is an option code for the tail, not the chin in front. Take a picture of your white tag in the frunk. You can google what each number represents.

Congrats on your purchase, I love the Granite Green Metallic I don't see that color to often, were you looking for a while before you found this beauty ? How many miles ?

The yellow lab seems to approve as well.
Thought the same thing, guarding the prize

I've never seen a grey-green headliner. You sure it isn't black? I love granite green!

Attached is the option code sticker. 911 Red Book shows an M code of 470 for "Delete Spoilers" and 473 " With Spoilers" . My sticker has neither 470 or 473 so it is confusing to say the least

I was looking for at least 2 months . The market in the SF Bay Area (and beyond) is very low inventory and when good cars come on the market they are gone immediately. Brokers are scooping up most cars at full asking price. Very frustrating . I found this one out in the boondocks of Fresno.

I checked the headliner and it is difficult to tell today in my garage. I posted some pics but hard to tell in the poor light conditions today with cloudy skies . It does look more gray/green than black but I could be wrong.

Thanks for the nice comments on the car
