86 coupe Digidash

[Ed Kellock]

CE CGTs were also available in Graphite metallic (a very dark grey that is
essentially black).  I owned 2 of them before getting my 87 CGT 2.3 which is
a bit rare itself being all white, including white leather seats.  I know
I've seen some 87's advertised that did not have the digital dash, but I
believe it was more common than not on them.
