Finally got my inheritance!
So I finally got the family SC passed on to me. This is our garage queen and we just hit 70k miles. Purchased in January of 1997 and the only one in red with the black/tan interior I have ever seen. Now the car will take up space in my garage and continue it's indoor stay... Everything in the car works great and is all original. Enjoy!

So wait, excuse my ignorance but the interior came in a black/tan two tone as a factory option in 1997+?

unless someone custom ordered the car to be like that. which is highly unlikely. someone converted that to black.

Actually, this is the factory original interior. I don't remember if it were custom ordered or not, but we did not change any of the trim pieces, everything is exactly stock. I plan on keeping it that way.

You should know something before you make a statement about it.
That is a gorgeous car. Enjoy it. Please don't trash it.
