86 coupe Digidash

[David Ullrich]

Your CGT should have red leather interior, and be white with white painted
rims (Commemerative Edition)...there's a rumor that some CE's came in Zermat
Silver...but I've never seen any proof of that. Other than the 86 CEs, I
don't believe any 86s came with digi-dashes. ALL 1987's did, including the
Coupe GT "Special Build" or Coupe GT 2.3 which is mistakenly called the
1987.5 by some...I say mistakenly because it was built throughout the whole
model year run...and in fact there was ONE 1986 CGT 2.3.
