A new arrival from Japan

Rennlist member das76 introduced this car as a 1991 Turbo found in Japan through RSC Motors in Vancouver. After travelling from Victoria by floatplane to collect it, the owner described a driver’s car rather than a garage queen. The introduction lists a black leather interior, a B&B exhaust, newly fitted RUF wheels and Michelin tyres.

The owner’s colour-name correction

The owner corrected the original colour description to Linen Metallic, paint code W5, and described it as PTS. In the follow-up, das76 distinguished it from Linen Grey Metallic after initially mixing up the names and codes. The colour and PTS identification here follow that corrected owner description.

The owner’s wheel and tyre note

In a later reply, das76 identified the tyres as Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 and noted that the front tyres looked more stretched than the rears. The owner wondered whether the front wheel width or tyre brand explained the difference; this remained a personal observation rather than a confirmed fitment diagnosis.
