I stumbled onto an AOL list of LFAs for sale and a shop in Willoughby OH has a Brownstone car.
If anyone is in the area, please get us some pics as this would be the second, year 2 color palette car known to hit the US shores.
Other trivia, of the 14 cars on the AOL list, Herb Chambers has one with a black interior. I wonder if he got a second one or had the orange interior replaced in the brown one he has.

No pics yet but a Google of the vin number yielded some configuration factoids (red calipers, oh no!)
BROWN STONE EXTERIOR COLOR
HEADLAMP CLEANER
METALLIC TRIM BROWNISH BLACK
RED BRAKE CALIPERS
SADDLE TAN DOOR TRIM/ DASH & C
SADDLE TAN STEERING GRIP
SEAT BACK- BLACKISH BROWN
SEAT FRONT- SADDLE TAN
STITCHING BLACKISH BROWN
Also, It looks like the dealership is one of these mega businesses, Classic Auto Group.

2011 Smokey Granite Mica CT 200h 1998 Red SC 400 - Gone but definitely not forgotten 1996 Star Sapphire Pearl GS 300 - Gone but not forgotten 1996 Classic Green Pearl ES 300 - 400,697 miles R.I.P.
^^^ Can't know until you see the badge # to confirm.. My guess is around #224 to #226

So I wonder if the production numbers are still +2 of the VIN... so this would be number 225? Or maybe the gap is larger now? Hmmm.

I spoke with the dealer and he will get me some exterior pics
He said it is locked and can not get good interior pics or a look at the chassis number
They have had the car close to 3 weeks
It is a config 3 and he believes it has the polished wheels
The designated Badge Number is on the special plate.. (as we all know by now)
