Is that a bright blue 82 in your profile pic? I have one and you don't see too many. Ive been to Bloomington a few & Carslile many times and Ive seen 5 inc'l my own.
Ive always wondered how many are still out there. With 549 made, just a bit more rare than the "prized" Coll. Ed. Thanks, Mark

Mark, It is an 81 and originally silver but I had it painted Intense Blue Pearl. If the interior was black instead of silver I would have preferred yellow. But after I saw it the first time in blue I was very happy with it.
