One of 5 in this color combo imported to USA (almost all 702 Smoke Silver had fungal/shroom interior). Two Black interiors in 92, two 93, one 94.

Looks really nice up top, but since it spent 25+ years in Michigan, pics underneath are needed.

Hello, I bought this car last month. Beautiful shape, runs great and no rust underneath. Changed all the fluids in engine, tranny and diff for next week. Dealing with CEL only, need to teach myself OBD1, but car runs great. For whomever keeps track of owners with the VIN-hello.

Congrats on the purchase, @pfleon! You picked up a rare color combo here. It looks much nicer than most from the photos, and if it's rust-free that's a huge bonus. It looks amazing for 138kmi. You could start a new OWNER thread here with photos & info to document your new ride.

For the CEL, read the sticky notes at the De-Coding subforum at this link. The CEL only illuminates for emissions-related issues, most likely something related to the secondary air injection (smog pump) or the cold upshift delay. There's a built-in blink code reader near the CAN box that will tell you what the specific code is triggering the CEL. There are 5 other powertrain modules which must be checked / cleared separately with a hand-held (OBD-1) blink code reader.

BTW - welcome to the forum!
