Yup... Anniversay edition, celebrating 25 years of the 911. A copy of Ferry Porsche's sig on the headrests. Maybe a dash plaque. Special color. Available in coupe, targa and cab.

Yes, cars came with 15" wheels, color coded.

Thanks for the replies. This is the second one of these, that I know about, here on Oahu. Does the "Special Edition" thing add appreciably to the value, or are they priced similarly to an 88' Carrera of equal condition? I'm a little surprised to know of two of these right here. Maybe they aren't that rare. ??

Jon - It is the Commemorative Edition Carrera. The Silver Anniversary Carrera is silver with silver wheels. That CE is located in Hawaii Kai near the Kalama Valley Center. There is another cab I see on Kal Hwy that is the same color. IMHO, the asking price (for Hawaii) is on the high side. Considering Tom sold his 88 for @ $11k, I think the selling price for that one is closer to $15k or so.

Thank you Bryan:
What got me going is that I have a friend that just bought the exact same car here on Oahu. Seemed odd to have two, right here, but maybe not.
