Got my COA today, after 4 months (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) , & I thought it posed some interesting questions. COA said I have white fog lights & velour trunk carpeting. Did 914s come w/ yellow fog lights? What on earth is velour trunk carpeting?

Wolfgang is correct about yellow fogs for France. But I have never seen velour as original trunk carpeting in a six. Who knows, maybe the factory was experimenting again and someone didn't like it so they replaced it before you owned the car.
I have become more and more distrustful of the information from the COA. Out of 8 catagories listed on yours, 3 of them are N/A. Now they get wordy in the options area. My COA for #0876 just states that it has Canadian Equipment. Whatever that means. The car was sold in Nevada and lived in CA. Sixes were not sold in Canada. (Maybe ONE exception) This is a classic case where you can't display your COA at a Parade Concours without the judges holding the owner responsible to the original spec. Don |

(Maybe ONE exception) Don, could you post or email your COA for me to see. I have not seen Canadian equipment listed before. I'd bet it was the heated rear window, not sure what else. But why do they not explain the option. I guess it is a matter of interpretation, but what exactly does the record for the car state? How do they actually decode it? |
