They must have cut the Porsche up into pretty small pieces to fit it all in.

Its there.
373 - Specs package, which almost certainly includes safaris.


373 isn't in the M-code list here - Cool.
I will add "Includes Safaris?" to the list as well
We have that for several other Package M-codes

She came from Manitoba. I made the trip the end of June to get her from her resting spot she sat in for over 53 years. I drove 7500 Kms round trip. It was quite an adventure. Lol
