Osnabrück –'fours' ready to ship.

You'd think the cars in the foreground were destined for the USA – note side marker lights, but also the 'Porsche' script on the engine lid of the second car in line – but the car nearest the camera has amber/white European turn signal lenses. Note that this same car also has a passenger door mirror fitted. Silver car is non-appearance group with bare sail panels...

The cars in the second row are European-spec, with no 'Porsche' script. Fourth (orange) car in line has bare sail panels.

Some of the cars on the train appear to have optional fog lights fitted, although the white one doesn't have the appearance group vinyl-covered sail panels. Customer saving money in one area to spend it in another?

Also note that some cars have their mirrors folded back )logical, to protect the glass) but several have the mirrors folded forward...

Love old factory photos...
