Steve or Chris could probably verify this, but I believe that the dealer painted the black coupe blue to sell it when it was new. I can't believe that this pretty color combination was hard to sell, but it may have been.

[/ QUOTE ] Tim, I was told that for some reason that the car sat unsold for many months. It was then painted blue and the car sold I have to admit that I do miss the car but it is still close by and is in very good hands. I had been chasing the car that I currently own for several years so when it became available I had to let this one go. In a perfect world I would have loved to have kept both but I have no regrets at all.
Paul, it was a pleasure helping you find your J56 car, glad your happy with it. Here is a pic of my and Chris' old car.
