Do I Own An Anomaly?
1995 164 LS - a NINETY-FIVE - with the 1994-style engine-temp gauge...!?
What gives? Weird too, given that this is a late-late '95 production car - literally THE LAST car sold at Ferrari of Seattle, but it has the old style 90 to 230 gauge...
Never seen that. 
Both of my other 1995s have the 90 to 250 and the two 1994s have the older 90 to 230 gauges...

I have a 95 Q cluster with 90-230, not sure cars production date though. May have been later models depending on dates.

they're all goofy
I have a 10/94 build on my auto LS with old style gauge faceplate, but apparently new style guage resistor in the dash. Therefore, the temp gauge alway read higer by about 15 degrees than the actual, instrumented temp. I added a 28? ohm resistor in series with the temp sender and now the indicated temp is within a couple degrees of the actual temp.
My 12/94 LS has the new style gauge dial and I think it prob has the wrong resistor in it as well but have not yet had the time to dink around with it.

Guess they were scrounging around for bits to put on a car going out of production....

Most of the last models were indeed build from "whatever was left on the shelf" I' ve seen many 164 Supers with the "old chrome Alfa heart" on the hood.Another think that is noticable; all FL and Super have the double armed LH windshieldwiper, except a few of the very last models...
