But I wouldn't want blk or blue intr. Every white 68 seems to have those combos.

not sure i like the white piping, but contrasting piping can look great (like the silver/red combination that porsche did)

You're right that it seems they all are blue or black. The Grand Prix White/Marine Blue combo was popular not only on the 968 but the same era 911 (964) and 928 are also popular in this combo. I think the only other two choices were gray or chestnut with the white exterior unless you special ordered something. Jeff's got actual numbers...I've never seen a marine blue interior with piping like this...not sure how it moves me.
Rhude, even though it's not unique in any way, I really like my white over dark (marine) blue as opposed to white over regular 'ol black.

i do like the classic grey in our white cab, especially since the top is also grey, but i am fearful of the day i will have to rework the panels that are doomed to turn brown, as all classic grey does

i think this is the root of why the european cars tend to look more worn - they are exposed to the conditions like the east coast cars are, namely weather
also, these cars tend to be more toys than daily drivers, and the driving attitudes in europe are very different - here most people own at least 2 cars, and garage them more often than not - often cars see very few miles, as in the case of a "toy" - this would tend to keep a car in better shape longer

Midnight blue is the exterior color with the most varieties of interior/top colors but white is #2. Not considering the top colors, just interiors:
100 Dark blue
68 Black
59 Midnight blue
53 Cashmere/black
32 Classic gray
And the oddballs:
8 Light gray/black
6 Light gray/classic gray
5 Cobalt blue
5 Magenta
5 Chesnut brown
4 Marble gray/black
2 Marble gray/midnight blue
1 Light gray/cobalt
1 Flamenco Red/Black

It is one in the same, I just forgot to put the /Black but there is only one flavor of cashmere on the 968 and that is cashmere/black. Sorry. Remember Bob, your car is still cashmere/black interior code LC, you just have the optional black deviated carpets but you still have the same interior code as a car without the carpet option.
