Here's a question I hope someone can clear up for me.
Was there really a Manta version with an official name of Blue Max or was this a "reference" name for a Luxus because certain models were almost all blue?
I ask because I have not found any reference to a Blue Max in any listings for parts or history on Mantas. My 73 Manta was called a Blue MAx by the former owner but everything I see and have read points to a Luxus. It's all blue except for the vinyl roof which has been replaced and the center console and door trim which has been painted black but is blue underneath. The upholstery is blue and am sure it has been replaced. It does not have a sunroof which I understand was an option on Luxus.
Anyone who can clear this up for me I would appreciate it. Pictures are posted in the members gallery.
