'87 Carrera Rims and Center Console
 
Good day everyone,
I just joined this group after I purchased a 1987 ROW Carrera in auction in Japan. This is my first Porsche, so I'm a newbie. I'm supposed to receive the car in the next couple of weeks or so.
I would like to verify a couple of things:

1) The color looks to be Prussian Blue (description said blue only), and the rims are body color. Was this a factory option or something that the previous owner did?

2) The car has a full center console that I have not seen before. Was this something that could've been a factory option also?

Thank you all and I look forward to my first Porsche experience.
Mo

Color matched wheels was and option. 87 Carrera came standard with a console but not that one... This was typically found in the 930s, along with the steering wheel id it is a factory one. Both options.

Really nice looking car Medium. You'll have lots of fun with that.

Nice car. Would you post pictures of the rear seats? It is my understanding that they are different than the ROW & North America.

Lovely car! That’ll be either Marine Blue or Venetian Blue for 1987. Prussian Blue not typical for 1987.

I have a marine blue '87, and it photographs much darker then the one above. Hard to tell lighting here, but it might be. OP's car seems to have more green in it.

I agree Larry. This car looks a bit lighter, yet “bluer” to my eyes, compared to my Marine Blue ‘87 Carrera.
