Yup. Oak green Cab with 6 speed. I have to check the registry now. Since most were tip, I want to see if this is a 1 of 1 or 2 or 3, etc.

One of my customers has a 92 968 Oak Green cabrio as well. Tiptronic. He claims it to be 1 of 7.
Cosmetically it looks rough as a cobb right now but he plans to get a full paintjob in the next year or two. Post some photos of yours here once you get it! Congrats!

Right on! Watch Jürgens and Vans videos so you can get acclimated.
Everyone will tell you to do the timing belt for good measure.....it is the right of passage to transaxle ownership. You will choose it over the taildragger after you get Konis)) |

Congrats! Yes, I'm here as well. You got a neat one there. You will not ever see yourself as they are rare in that color. Fill out the registry form on the site and we'll get you signed up.
Well, it is a stretch but I did get you to a 1 of 1: 1 of 14 NA 968 cabs painted in N9 Oak Green (all 14 had black tops and cashmere interiors) 11 had 6 speeds 3 had tips 7 1992s 6 1993s 1 1994 2 had the very desirable 383/387 sport seats There was only 1 of the N9 oak green cabs that had sport seats in 1993, your's!
