These are just the facts.

Also red is probably the most popular color for sports cars in general. Red doesn't age well on these cars and turns to a shade of pink. It probably has a lot to do with folks not wanting a 23 year old faded red car. Color trends on cars change over time. When was the last time you saw a new Teal or Brown car?
Yeah, when the red fades it does look pretty terrible. Everyone is different as well, we will all have different tastes.

What is the difference between the tachs? I don't see any indications on it that make it from an automatic? Also, this is an original 5 speed car. And yes, it is a 93. The speedo was changed over, and there are no documents proving that. But a look around the car prooves its mileage. That was something i questioned before buying it, but what really mattered was the condition, which is beautiful. Ill post up some pics of german things for those interested in seeing. Thanks everyone.

Must be a German thing with the red line starting at 7k

US auto is 7500 and US manual 8k

Nice clean car but it being a German car is likely to devalue it

List it anywhere and everywhere for 25k and see what happens
