Oldest S70? S70

Build Date of 1/97. Red T5, 5 speed, every option available at the time, except for the wood trim (which I would gladly do without any day). Supposedly my car was on display at some auto show before it came to the show room. This is what the dealer told me as there was a missing knob, and a scratch in the seat. Both of which were replaced by the dealer before I took the car into possesion (12/97). My car was also built along side the 850's, as their production was not stopped until I believe around March or April of 97. Lots of the components were shared between the cars, as most of the parts you would expect to say "S70" say 850. I would think that as you got later into the 98 model year run the parts supply would have been updated and so forth. I also recall that the wiring harness for the engine was replaced during the 98 run. But if I am wrong i'm sure someone will gladly correct me. My car is in no way a high mileage S70, with only 61k on the clock. I am hoping to have this car around for many years to come.
