Pearl Silver Coach Edition, that's a gorgeous color...I wish I could have found one (not crashed, of course), when shopping for my ES.

Coach is a manufacturer of upscale leather goods. The '96 Coach Edition cars had nicer leather (with perforated inserts), wood trim around the power window controls, black pearl badges, and nicer, 5-cutout dish style wheels, that looked similar to Mercedes wheels (vs. the standard silver double 3-spoke wheels).
There was a special Pearl Silver color only available in the Coach Edition, along with the Black Onyx and Diamond White Pearl.

Don't forget the "COACH" signatures badged on the headrests of the driver's side rear seat, and the driver's seat, and of course, the "Coach Edition" authentic badges shown on both sides of the ES's body, in between the front doors and tires.

Thumbs down

WHOOOAA - That just made my stomach hurt. Just knowing that the owner of that car loves it just as much as we love our wheels.

It just ain't right! ~ but I'll be driving 10 miles slower tonight!
