Vert Base Model?

I saw a 91 vert for sale without leather and without the BBS wheels. I did not know they made a 91 without those options. How is the cloth compared to the leather in the vert? Are there any other options missing as well? The rims look like what came on 10th aniversary and the turbo.

Then the wheels were replaced! All convertibles came with the BBS wheels. Do the seats have the headrest speakers? If they do, the leather must have been a delete option. If they don't, then they have been replaced as well.

Check the door panels... if the seats were leather and have been changed, the door panel inserts will still be leather.

and all North American 'verts came with BBS wheels.

I suspect that he changed the wheels and seats from a Turbo into his 'vert.

The other option is that he used seats from a 88 'vert which was standard with the nice and non-slippery cloth seats.

I took another look at the pictures and noticed the seats have a smaller headrest. Of course that means no speakers. You were right icemark, they must have switched out the seats and the wheels for a turbo model.

I hope the wheels were replaced due to damage- those are the lightest stock wheels available! As for the leather, I have cloth seats in my vert (an 88) and much prefer them to leather, especially in these humid florida temps.

I also enjoy the cloth seats in my vert. I imagine 128,000 mile leather seats would be in pretty bad shape but my cloth seats are in excellent condition.
