[s-cars] Pearl S6 avant with salvage title @ Shokan

[LL - NY]

I've seen one Casablanca white UrS6 sedan years ago when I was fetching
parts from the guy in the Kingston, NY area.

And, FWIW, I think VAG does, from time to time, do some weird paint
"options" on cars. My former 85 A2 GTi was a definite example. At the time
(purchased new, so I know it wasn't a respray, and there was a second one at
a competing dealer) the catalog said only Mars Red, Black, Diamond Silver
Metallic. My car was in VW Code LE9C, Cashmere, which was a sort of off
white. It came with some black/red stripes, which I didn't like so they were
stripped. The competitor dealer's car had the same stripes. I also saw
similar stripes, in black/silver on a Mars Red GTi at the same dealer as I
bought the car. This color/stripe combo was NEVER in the catalog, nor was it
a dealer installed option.

Just food for thought.
