NEW to the CLUB!
Hi Gang, After wanting a Porsche since i was a little kid i finally got it. It is a pleasure to be part of such a great group of people. I'm have one problem though. I cant seem to find much info on my car. It is a 89 Silver Anniversary in Metallic Black. Any info from you all would be great or any info from fellow SA owners would be nice. I look forward in meeting up with you all some day. Thank you to Everyone on this board for your help. You all have helped me over the years in one way or another.

Welcome Rob! Nice looking car there. No that the Porsche has taken over the spot in the garage, you can rotate the "oil drip mat" to the other end of the floor!

Rob, there is a fellow in my area who had a beautiful SA (HAD...He got T-boned a few years back and the car was totalled.) Don't know if the outcome would have been so positive if not for great German engineering)...He goes by "chuckr" here on Pelican. He could probably answer soome of your SA questions. Great guy.

All the ones I remember seeing have been a silver with somewhat of a blue tint.

Rob -
Nice metallic black SA - only 60 of those were produced! Here is some of the info I have collected: 1989 Carrera Silver Anniversary Edition 300 hundred units produced (60 in Metallic Black and 240 in Metallic Silver). The Special Edition consists of: Metallic Silver or Metallic Black body color Silk Grey upgraded leather interior with contrasting black piping (stitched leather arm rests, fluffed seat inserts) Silk Grey (thick pile), carpet (including luggage compartment) Turbo Center Stitched Leather Console with ambient temp gage "25" Anniversary Plaque 6X16 & 8X16 Polished Fuchs with centers painted matching body color Factory installed Short Shift kit Front & Rear Carrera Spoiler HD washer system with intensive windshield washer Rear Window Wiper The SA option added $5k to the sticker price. Have you searched the car to see if you have the metal plaque? Here is a crop of a Silver Anniversary folder that I scanned. ![]() ..
