88 vert rare blue, how rare ??

I just bought this 88 vert that is suppose to be very rare I hear. It is the dark blue. How rare is this in a 5 speed? ALso didn't all vert come with leather seats or was this an option. Mine does not have the leather seats with the speakers in the headrest? What is the lowdown on this?
Thanks in advance.

whats the production date??

The only blue ones in 88 were in 5A Sapphire Blue Metallic. Which was kinda dirty medium blue

But in 89-91 you could get either 5D Harbor Blue Metallic or 5N Brave Blue MC.

As far as options, there was a GXL package that included the leather seats, head rest speakers, leather and tilt steering wheel, CD, cruise, luminated keyholes. This package pushed the weight up another 100lbs.
