I dont' think I still have the dealer invoice, although I may. I do remember I had to pay $9700 for it. Which was a premium at the time. And I got every option available at the time, except for the leather package. I got the sunroof, AC, the five speed, and the waffle wheels. You had to get the wheels if you bought the sunroof. It was sold as a package only.

I still remember the smell of the undercoating burning off after I took it for a test drive. And the drive home from Sioux City, back to Okoboji. You could take your hands off the steering wheel and it would run straight as an arrow forever.

they are getting more and more rare. the three piece spoiler is part of the IMSA appearance package which consisted of the front air dam, targa band, and the three piece rear spoiler. the parts could be bought together or seperatly.

Rare, what do I have that is "rare".

Almost had my hands on a Xenon front lip.
Maybe the 3 piece spoiler that needs work.
A rear seat?

They did a soft top conversion, as a convertable. Used a Mercedes top, I believe SL500 or something? All mercedes look the same to me.

Black88inmd I had the second tonneau cover pictured but tossed it I kept the bar across tho because its handy to keeps things from sliding forward and to strap stuff to. I took out all of the snaps as well. Didn't realize it was a dealer item until much later. Oh well.
